Council tax on St Michaels Road: Band D is £2,595 a year in Tandridge, up 5.0% on last year

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

The average Band D council tax in Tandridge is £2,595 for 2026 to 2027, £203 above the England average of £2,392. That ranks Tandridge 41st highest of 296 billing authorities, and the charge rose from £2,472 last year. Next door in Croydon, Band D is £2,600, £5 more than in Tandridge, so which side of a council boundary a home sits on changes the bill by about £5 a year at Band D.

Your own bill depends on your property's band. In England bands are set from the home's estimated value on 1 April 1991, so a Band C home pays eight ninths of the Band D charge and a Band F home thirteen ninths. The figures below are the charge for each band in Tandridge, before any discount or reduction, and they include the county or borough, police, fire and any parish or GLA precepts averaged across the authority.
