Non - Domestic (Business) Rates - reductions (relief)

When a non-domestic property becomes empty a nil may be applicable for 3 months (factories and warehouses have no time limit) then an empty rate becomes payable (50%).

Where a charitable organisation is liable for non-domestic rates then a mandatory 80% reduction can be applied for and the Council has the power to award a further 20% discretionary reduction if the property is used wholly or mainly for charitable purposes.

There is also discretion to award a reduction for non-domestic liability of certain bodies not established or conducted for profit.

Should you require any further information or assistance about non-domestic rates then please contact Revenue Services.
