What happens if my property is empty?

If a property is empty and unused, no business rates are normally payable for the first three months and 50% of the full bill is payable after this period has elapsed.

Some types of business property are exempt from empty property rates. An exemption will automatically be applied to your bill, if appropriate, when you advise the Council that the property has become empty.
