Council tax in CR8 3PB: Band D is £2,379 a year in Sutton, 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 Sutton is £2,379 for 2026 to 2027, £13 below the England average of £2,392. That ranks Sutton 192nd highest of 296 billing authorities, and the charge rose from £2,270 last year.

The figures below are the charge for each band in Sutton, before any discount or reduction, and they include the county or borough, police, fire and any parish or GLA precepts averaged across the authority.
