As non-domestic rates bills start to be issued from today, we want to highlight the new rates relief that comes into effect from 1 April.
Businesses could receive up to 40% relief from their annual rates bill for the financial year 2025-26.
Hospitality Rates Relief for businesses with a rateable value less than £51,000 and which operate in the following may be eligible:
- bed and breakfast accommodation
- camping site
- caravan
- caravan site
- chalet, holiday hut and bothy
- guest house, hotel and hostel
- public house or nightclub
- restaurant (including any café, coffee shop, bistro, fast food restaurant or snack bar that is so used)
- self-catering holiday accommodation
- Small music venue
- timeshare accommodation
If your business is already in receipt of 100% relief, for example, 100% Small Business Bonus, you should not apply for Hospitality relief.
This relief will also be capped at a maximum of £110,000 per ratepayer.
To apply, go to the hospitality relief page on this website.
