The Commissioner of Valuation is independent in the exercise of his functions under the Valuation Acts 2001-2020.

I am advised by the Commissioner that the Valuation Office telephone helpline is open. Its Public Office is open to members of the public on an appointment only basis. Further information is available directly from the Valuation Office, if required.

Arrangements have been put in place by all bodies under the aegis of my Department to facilitate the provision of information directly to members of the Oireachtas. The contact email address for the Valuation Office is oireachtas.enquiries@VALOFF.ie.
