Change of circumstances
You need to tell us if your circumstances change as this might affect the amount of council tax you have to pay.
You need to tell us if:
- there are changes in your household or family situation (if someone moves in or out of the property)
- there are changes to your family situation (through divorce, marriage, separation or death)
- your name changes
- you believe that you are entitled to a discount or an exemption
- you believe that you are no longer entitled to a discount or an exemption
- your bank details change and you are paying by direct debit
Moving house
You need to let us know if you are:
- moving into the area
- moving out of the area
- moving within the area
Letting us know you are moving allows us to update our records and send you a new bill.
When someone has died
When someone has died, you need to let us know.
If you are using the tell us once process, Revenue Services will be informed without you having to contact us.
If you have not used the tell us once process, you should complete the let us know a council tax payer has died form.
Changes to discounts or exemptions
It is important that you let us know if you are no longer entitled to a discount or exemption from council tax. We are committed to making sure that discounts only apply to people who are entitled to them.
Please let us know of any changes to discounts or exemptions by contacting revenue services.

This could be because of divorce, separation, marriage or someone over 18 moving out permanently.
