Council Tax in City of London: FAQ

Are Barbican flats correctly banded?

Barbican flats vary significantly in size and type. The 1991 assessment didn't always account for these differences, and some flats may be in the wrong band.

Is City of London council tax different?

The City of London Corporation sets its own council tax rates, which are different from surrounding boroughs.

How many City residents challenge their band?

With a small residential population, fewer challenges are made, but the success rate for those who do challenge is comparable to other areas.
