Property Vested in a Trustee Due to Bankruptcy
You may be entitled to a Council Tax exemption if the property is vested in the trustee of a person who has been declared bankrupt.
How does the property qualify for an exemption?
The unoccupied property can be furnished and an interest in the property is vested in a permanent trustee by virtue of bankruptcy laws.
Note: The exemption does not apply to unoccupied properties where liability for Council Tax is that of a company in liquidation or receivership.
How long will the exemption last?
The exemption will last for as long as the qualifying conditions exist.
How to apply:
To apply for this exemption please contact the Council Tax team (opens new window).
