How the bands work
Every home is placed in a valuation band, and the bill for each band is a fixed fraction of the Band D charge that the council sets. In Wales there are nine bands, A to I, based on April 2003 values.
Wales has nine bands because band I was added for property values over £424,000 (April 2003 values). The proportions are 6:7:8:9:11:13:15:18:21, so a Band I property pays 21/9 of the Band D charge, 2.33 times Band D.
| Band | Property value (April 2003) | Share of Band D |
|---|---|---|
| A | Up to £44,000 | 6/9 |
| B | £44,001 to £65,000 | 7/9 |
| C | £65,001 to £91,000 | 8/9 |
| D | £91,001 to £123,000 | 9/9 |
| E | £123,001 to £162,000 | 11/9 |
| F | £162,001 to £223,000 | 13/9 |
| G | £223,001 to £324,000 | 15/9 |
| H | £324,001 to £424,000 | 18/9 |
| I | Over £424,000 | 21/9 |
Worked example. Band D is £1,800. Band A is 6/9, £1,200. Band I is 21/9, £4,200.
