If you are an occupier of a business
premises in North Somerset you are liable to pay business
rates.
All occupied and some unoccupied business premises across
the district are liable, although
relief is available
depending on your circumstances.
The amount you pay depends broadly on the rental value of
your property, which has been set by the Valuation Office Agency
(VOA), and is worked out using a formula which multiplies this
figure by a rate in the pound (rating multiplier).
Once this has been calculated you will be expected to pay your bill
unless you appeal against the
charge. However, you must pay the figure stated on your bill while
any appeal is being considered.
You can arrange to pay your business rates by
Direct Debit or there are
other ways to
pay. |
