You can pay your business rates in a number of ways:
By direct debit
The easiest way to pay your business rates is by direct debit - payments are taken on a ten monthly basis (April - January), with no payments in February and March.
You can choose to have your payments taken out of your bank account on either on the first of each month.
To set up a Direct Debit, visit our business rates portal. Read our privacy notice. Make sure you have your banking details and your business rates reference to hand.
