Council Tax - Set up a Direct Debit

You can use this form to either:

  • set up a Direct Debit to pay your Council Tax
  • change your existing Direct Debit details
  • change the collection date
You can use this form to set up a Direct Debit on behalf of another person, if you are paying from your bank account.

To fill in this form you will need:

  • the Council Tax account number (starts with 16)
  • your bank details
We will check the bank account details and the address where the account is registered. If we are unable to verify these details, you can:

  • upload a bank statement showing the name, address and bank details entered on this form, or
  • provide alternative bank account details
In some cases, you will need to fill in a paper direct debit instruction, for example if more than one person is required to authorise payments from a bank account.
