Council Tax: Discounts and exemptions on properties
Uninhabited, unfurnished, empty, or uninhabitable properties may be exempt from Council Tax. Specific types of properties are also exempt when they are dedicated solely to a special purpose, such as only housing students or armed forces personnel.

You must tell us immediately of a change in your circumstances. Failure to do so may result in a Council Tax Penalty being imposed. If you disagree with a penalty imposed on you, you may wish to discuss it with us first. Alternatively, you may appeal direct to the Valuation Tribunal Wales
