Council Tax

 

Council Tax

Council Tax is a local tax on all domestic properties.  The tax is levied by Perth & Kinross Council to help fund local services such as schools, libraries, refuse collection, police and fire services.

Council Tax is a daily charge payable by instalments from 1st April - 1st January or annually by 1st June.

The Council is required by law to collect water and waste water charges on behalf of Scottish Water and these charges are included in your Council Tax bill, if you receive these services.

The amount of Council Tax you pay will depend on the value of your property and the valuation band your property has been placed in by the Assessor.  Your property band can be found on-line by visiting the Assessors web portal.

We accept Council Tax by a number of payment methods. 

There are certain circumstances where benefits, discounts, exemptions and reductions may be available.  

Perth & Kinross Council collected 96.6% of Council Tax for the period 1 April 2006 to 31 March 2007.
