How much is council tax in Caerphilly?

Band D for 2026‑27: £2,083 a year

Every other band is a fixed share of Band D, set in law. Band A is two thirds of it; band I is two and a third times it.

BandA year
Band A£1,389
Band B£1,620
Band C£1,851
Band D£2,083
Band E£2,546
Band F£3,009
Band G£3,471
Band H£4,166
Band I£4,860

Band D is the average across the area, including police and community council charges, so a home's own bill can be a little different. Bands other than D are worked out by us from Band D and rounded to the pound. A home's bill also takes off any discount, such as 25% for one adult living alone.
