Business rate arrears

Your national non-domestic rates (or business rates) bill and all other notices the Council may issue are issued in accordance with the Non-Domestic Rating (Collection & Enforcement)(Local List) Regulations 1989 (as amended).

Your bill will give you details of how much you are required to pay and will specify the amount of each instalment and the dates on which they must be paid.

If you do not pay as instructed the Council will issue reminders and recovery action will commence.

Each part of the recovery process is detailed in these pages.
