Occupied Property

Some properties may qualify for exemption even if they are occupied.  These can include:

  • CLASS M - properties which are Students' Halls of Residence;
  • CLASS N - all the residents are students;
  • CLASS O - properties which are UK Armed Forces accommodation;
  • CLASS P - properties are Visiting Forces accommodation;
  • CLASS S - properties where all the residents are under 18 years of age;
  • CLASS U - properties where all the residents are severely mentally impaired;
  • CLASS V - properties which are the main residence of a person with diplomatic privilege or immunity;
  • CLASS W - properties which are an occupied annexe to an occupied dwelling.

If you own or occupy a property and want to apply for one of these exemptions please contact the Council Tax office for further advice or download a Council Tax Exemption Application form from the box on the right.

Please note - you must continue to pay your current Council Tax bill until your application has been dealt with. If this will cause you any problems then please contact us immediately.
