Business rates

Business Rates (or non-domestic rates) is a local business tax payable in respect of all occupied and some unoccupied 'non-domestic' properties. Rates are paid to Walsall Council who acts as a Billing Authority on behalf of the Government. The business rates income is then paid into a government central pool, where it is re-distributed to councils according to population size.
