Discounts and Reductions

Council Tax Discount
Council Tax bills are issued on the assumption that two adults are resident in the property. If there is only one adult in the property, or if some adults can be disregarded for Council Tax purposes, a discount of up to 50% may be awarded.

Council Tax Exemption
Where a property is unoccupied or is solely occupied by certain categories of persons, an exemption may be awarded.

Disabled Person's Reduction
Where a property has been converted for use by a disabled person, a reduction may apply.

In all of the above cases an application must be made in writing before any discount, exemption or reduction may be awarded. Click here to download an application form or contact Local Taxes on 01738 477430 or email localtaxes@pkc.gov.uk


Home Insulation/Council Tax Rebate Scheme

Perth & Kinross Council is working in partnership with Scottish Gas who has created a low cost insulation package for private households in the Perth & Kinross area.

This includes a £50.00 Council Tax rebate when cavity wall or loft insulation is carried out under a specific Scottish Gas Scheme. Where both measures are installed the rebate amount is £100.00

The standard price for cavity wall or loft insulation, after rebate is £149.00

Free insulation is available for households containing anyone aged over 70 or those in receipt of certain benefits.
