Moving house

Taxpaying residents who move house within Charnwood usually keep the same Council Tax account number following their move. This makes it easier for them to handle their account.

Taxpayers moving out of the Charnwood area or moving to a property for which they have no Council Tax liability will also be asked to provide a forwarding address. This will let us issue a final Council Tax bill for payment, or to issue a refund if Council Tax has been overpaid.

You have 21 days to let us know of any change of address or other change in circumstances which may affect you paying Council Tax.
