Introduction
Eligible ratepayers will receive:
- 50% relief on their business rates bills for the 2022/23 tax year
- 75% relief on their business rates bills for the 2023/24 tax year
The most you can get in each tax year is £110,000 per business over all properties that your business occupies..
This relief is applicable after mandatory reliefs and all other discretionary reliefs have been applied.
Eligibility
Your business may be eligible for relief if:
• It is wholly or mainly being used as shops, restaurants, cafes, drinking establishments, cinemas or live music venues
• It is wholly or mainly being used for assembly and leisure; or
• It is wholly or mainly being used as hotels, guest & boarding premises or self-catering accommodation
• It has not exceeded the £110,000
cash cap across all of your business premises in England.
This cash cap applied at a Group company level (so holding companies and subsidiaries cannot claim up to the cash cap for each company) and also to organizations which, although not a company, have such an interest in a company that they would, if they were a company, result in its being the holding company.
• It has not exceeded the Small Amounts of Financial Assistance limit of £343,000 over 3 years. Expanded Retail Discount granted in either 2020/21 or 2021/22 does not count towards the £343,000 allowance but BEIS business grants (throughout the 3 years), including the Covid-19 support grants and any other subsidies claimed under the Small Amounts of Financial Assistance limit should be counted.
Required to complete your application
• Your most recent business rates bill.
• Details of any grants or subsidies claimed in the last 3 years
