Student Council Tax discounts and exemptions

Students who own a property

If you are a student who owns a property it may be exempt from Council Tax if:

  • you are a full-time student who has left your property in order to study
  • you became a student less that six weeks after you left
  • it was your main home before you left
  • no one is living there as their main home since you left.

You must let us know in writing at Welhat.CouncilTax@liberata.com that your property is exempt for these reasons.

The exemption will stop once you complete your course, even if you do not move back into your home.
