Council tax
Find out what council tax is, how to pay, how much you will pay, discounts and help you can get for your bill, and what the money is spent on in Islington.
Anyone 18 or over who lives in or owns property in Islington must be registered for council tax.
Council tax pays for council services like recycling and rubbish collections, mending and maintaining streets and green spaces and many other programmes.
You might be able to get a discount on or support with your bill - for example if you are on benefits, a student or living alone.
You must tell us if your situation changes, you move in or out of Islington or change homes, or are struggling to pay. Read our council tax guidance if you're not sure what you need to do.
