As from 12th June, business rates payers will pay bills that better reflect current property values under new legislation introduced by ministers.
Property revaluations will increase to every three years (from five) and the next revaluation will be brought forward a year from 2022 to 2021.
A property’s business rates bill is based on a precise estimate of the premise’s rental value. Business rates revaluations help ensure this estimate accurately reflects the market value of the property and maintain fairness by redistributing the total amount payable across the country.
