An Overview of Business Rates



Non-domestic rates, more commonly known as Business Rates, are a form of tax charged on properties used for business purposes.

The non-domestic rates collected nationally are paid into a central pool and re-distributed to all local authorities. Our share of the re-distributed rates, together with what we collect from Council Tax, Government funding and other sources, is used to pay for the services we provide.

The amount of Business Rates charged for a property, depends on its rateable value. More comprehensive information is available on the Official Government website:
