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 Scotland there are eight bands, A to H, based on 1 April 1991 values. Bands E to H were raised from 1 April 2017.

Since 1 April 2017 the proportions for Scottish bands are 240:280:320:360:473:585:705:882 (SSI 2016/368). Band D is 360/360. Band H pays 882/360, which is 2.45 times Band D and about 3.68 times Band A.
