Business rate relief
As part of our support for businesses during COVID-19, we are applying Business rate relief to all eligible business accounts.
You do not need to take any further action as we have:
- applied the discount automatically
- sent you a new bill
The Business rate relief includes the 12-month business rates holiday for:
- retail
- hospitality
- leisure
- nursery businesses
- estate agents
- letting agents
- betting shops
- bingo halls
You may be able to get a discount, or business rates relief, on your business property, depending on:
- the type of business your run
- the rateable value of the business
You can download and read our Discretionary business rate relief policy.
From 1 April 2020 100% rate relief is available to occupied properties in the rating list described as Public Lavatories/Conveniences.
There is no application process for this relief. To apply, please contact the Business Rates Team on 01376 557755 providing your business rates account number and property address
