Council tax in CR8 3ND: Band D is £2,600 a year in Croydon, up 4.8% on last year

Charge for 2026 to 2027, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.

The average Band D council tax in Croydon is £2,600 for 2026 to 2027, £208 above the England average of £2,392. That ranks Croydon 36th highest of 296 billing authorities, and the charge rose from £2,480 last year.
