Loading Council tax in Walthamstow…
What each band costs in 2026/27, who levies it, and the discounts and support you can claim — filed under Waltham Forest, where the rules live.
Loading the latest information…
Council tax in Walthamstow is set and collected by the London Borough of Waltham Forest. Walthamstow has no council of its own, so everything to do with your bill — bands, discounts, payments — is filed under Waltham Forest rather than Walthamstow. Pick your band below to see the charge for 2026/27, what it comes to each month, and how it splits between the two authorities that levy it. These are the full charges. As the council says on its own band page, they do not take into account any discounts, benefits or other reductions you may be entitled to. The common ones are set out further down. One figure here is a penny out from the council's own table. Every band is worked out from the Band D charge using the proportions set in law, which matches the council's published table everywhere except Band C: the council prints £2,121.74 and that sum gives £2,121.75. It makes no practical difference to a bill, and the council's table is the authority either way.
Pick your band to see the year’s charge and what it works out to a month. Nothing you choose is saved or sent anywhere — it stays on your device.

A Band D home in the main town pays £2,386.96 in 2026/27. It is collected on one bill but shared between the authorities that levy it:
The council for Walthamstow, and the larger share of the bill.
The Mayor of London's precept, charged in every London borough.
These figures come from the council’s published band schedule and are worked out with the standard band proportions. The council’s own schedule is the authority on what you owe.
