Registering for Council Tax and telling us about a move


If you have just moved into your first home in Cambridge, you will need to register for Council Tax.

If you already live here, you must tell us about any changes that affect your liability to pay Council Tax.

For example, we need to know if:

  • you move to a new address in Cambridge
  • you are no longer entitled to a discount or exemption that you have been claiming
  • you might now be entitled to a discount or exemption
  • you are a student and your course has been extended

We also need to know if you are moving out of Cambridge.

Tell us you have moved home or about another change

The system often goes offline for maintenance between 8pm and 8.30pm. We apologise for any inconvenience this causes.

We might contact you to ask for further information or proof.

When you have received your first Council Tax bill, you can create or access your online Council Tax account.
