Aberdeen Council

If you have a council tax or benefit enquiry, you’ll need to contact Aberdeen Council on one of the helpline numbers listed below.

Aberdeen City Council
St. Nicholas House
Broad Street
AB10 1AR

  Phone Number
Housing benefit and council tax benefit 0845 608 0921
Council Tax 0845 608 0921
General enquiries 0845 608 0910

If you’re experiencing financial difficulties, you must make sure you continue to manage your priority payments such as Council Tax, rent/mortgage and utilities, even if it means you cannot meet your monthly unsecured credit commitments.

That’s because the consequences of not managing your priority payments are much more severe. You should always contact your local council if you are struggling as you may be entitled to help paying your Council Tax.
