Late payments
If you make a payment more than seven days after your set instalment date, your payment will be considered late. At this point, we will start sending you reminder letters to collect the unpaid amount.
Ways to pay your business rates
If you’re struggling to make payment or pay on time, please consider the following options.
Pay by direct debit
Set up a direct debit which allows us to take the payment from your bank account on the same date each month.
Pay online

Spread your instalments over 12 months
Business rates instalments are automatically calculated over 10 months. To reduce your monthly instalment amount, you can request to spread your payments over 12 months.
