Business rate relief

Introduction to business rate relief

In certain circumstances, you might not need to pay business rates as your property may be exempt.

Exemptions can include:

  • agricultural land and buildings, including fish farms
  • buildings used for training or welfare of disabled people
  • buildings registered for public religious worship or church halls

For more information on the type of properties that are exempt, visit the Legislation.gov.uk website.

For advice and assistance on exemptions and discounts you may be entitled to, you can contact the business rates team.
