Business rates

Business rates is the commonly-used term for non-domestic rates. Non-domestic rates are charged on most non-domestic premises, including commercial properties such as shops, offices, pubs, warehouses, and factories. The council calculates and collects non-domestic rates on behalf of central government. The money raised is then used to help fund local services like the police and fire and rescue services.

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19), we are running on a reduced service and therefore only taking emergency calls. We understand this is a difficult time. If you are having difficulties paying, please contact us immediately via email at business.rates@eastriding.gov.uk.
