Council Tax Banding

The Valuation Office Agency's Listing Officer assesses all residential properties for Council Tax. Each property is given a charge band, from A to H, based on its approximate capital value in April 1991. Thanet District Council collects the Council Tax, which is then divided as follows:

• 14.34% is kept for providing local services
• 9.47% is paid to the Kent Police Authority
• 4.64% is paid to Kent & Medway Fire & Rescue Authority 
• 71.55% is paid to Kent County Council for county-wide services, such as education, social services, highways, coastal protection and libraries.

For more information, please see How your Council Tax is used to provide sevices in your area.
