There are two forms of formal challenge (appeal) for Council Tax and Non-Domestic
Rating disputes. A formal challenge submitted to the Valuation Office Agency (VOA)
and appeals to the independent Valuation Tribunal (VT). Legislation permits a taxpayer
to appeal to VT when they disagree with the VOA’s decision on the Council Tax band
of their domestic property, or Rateable Value of their non-domestic (business) property.<p>
</p><p>The VOA publish annual statistics on the number of challenges received, for
both domestic and non-domestic properties, including the outcomes, broken down by
region. You can view them here:</p><p> </p><p>Domestic properties, ‘Challenges and
