What is Band G?
Band G covers properties valued between £160,001 and £320,000 at 1 April 1991 in England and Scotland (£223,001 to £324,000 in Wales at 2003 prices). Band G households pay 15/9 of the Band D rate, two-thirds more than Band D. This is a broad band covering a wide range of expensive properties.
Typical property types in Band G: Large detached houses in desirable suburban areas, many London and South East properties that were upper-market in 1991, rural properties with land, and executive new-builds.
Band G in Wales
In Wales, Band G covers a different value range because Wales revalued its properties in 2003 rather than 1991. Welsh Band G applies to properties valued at £223,001 to £324,000 at 1 April 2003 prices. The same Band D multiplier (15/9) 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 G Rates Are Calculated
Your Band G council tax bill is calculated by multiplying your council's Band D rate by 15/9. 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 × 15/9 = Band G rate
Example: £2,392 (England average Band D) × 15/9 = £3,987.00 per year
