Under the Limitation Act of 1980, "If the Council Tax was due more than 6 years ago then the council are unable to ask the Court for a Liability Order (a liability order allows the council to deduct the Council Tax debt from your wages or benefits). However, it is unlikely that the council will have allowed this to happen, and they will usually have obtained a Liability Order before the 6 years are up."

In the UK, councils have the legal right to pursue unpaid council tax debts for up to six years. After this period, the debt becomes 'statute-barred' and the council cannot take legal action to recover it. However, councils can still contact individuals to request payment, but they cannot compel payment through legal means.
