Member of International Defence Headquarters
A person will be disregarded for the purposes of calculating a discount if they are a member or a dependent of a member of a headquarters or organisation which is the subject of a designation by an Order in Council under the Schedule to the International Headquarters and Defences Organisations Act 1964.
If you would like to apply for a reduction, please email us on local.taxation@barnet.gov.uk. Please quote the address to which the discount will apply, the council tax account number if known, and your contact details.
The discount is calculated by counting the number of residents that live in the dwelling as their main home, and disregarding those that fall into the categories listed above. There may be more than one disregarded person, and even households where all residents are disregarded. In these households the amount of the discount changes:
- where all residents except one are disregarded - 25%
- where all residents are disregarded - 50%
- a single resident who is also disregarded - 50%
In some cases where all residents are disregarded, they may be exempt from Council Tax.
