Every band includes the share of every body that sets council tax here, such as the police and, where they exist, the county council, the fire authority and parish councils, with parish precepts as an average. A home in a parish with its own precept pays a different amount, and discounts such as the single person discount are not taken off.

Band D bill breakdown in Havering
These are the published 2026/27 area averages. Parish charges are averaged into the council line. They are already included in the total and must not be added again.
| Part of the bill | Charging body | Annual Band D |
|---|---|---|
| Council, including average local precepts | Havering | £1,914.15 |
| County or GLA | Greater London Authority | £510.51 |
| Police | No separate precept reported | £0.00 |
| Fire | No separate precept reported | £0.00 |

| Published area average, including all precepts | £2,424.66 | |
Adult social care is included in council charges. Police and fire may be funded within another line, including a combined-authority or GLA charge. A zero separate line does not mean the service is absent. The named bodies come from MHCLG's billing-area mapping for this year.
The council's own Band D, excluding local precepts, is £1,914.15. This is a separate measure, not an additional charge.

Long-term Band D history
