What is Band E?

Band E covers properties valued between £88,001 and £120,000 at 1 April 1991 in England and Scotland (£123,001 to £162,000 in Wales at 2003 prices). Band E households pay 11/9 of the Band D rate, roughly 22% more than Band D.

Typical property types in Band E: Larger semi-detached and detached houses, executive estate homes in commuter areas, and some inner-city Victorian terraces that were mid-premium in 1991.

Band E in Wales

In Wales, Band E covers a different value range because Wales revalued its properties in 2003 rather than 1991. Welsh Band E applies to properties valued at £123,001 to £162,000 at 1 April 2003 prices. The same Band D multiplier (11/9) applies regardless of which nation you are in.

Wales also has an additional Band I (for properties over £424,000 at 2003 values) that does not exist in England or Scotland. See our Wales bands guide for the full Welsh band system.

How Band E Rates Are Calculated

Your Band E council tax bill is calculated by multiplying your council's Band D rate by 11/9. The Band D rate is set by your local authority each year in February or March. You cannot negotiate the fraction - it is set by central government.

Formula

Your council's Band D rate × 11/9 = Band E rate

Example: £2,392 (England average Band D) × 11/9 = £2,923.00 per year
