Transitional Reliefs
General Revaluation Transitional Relief
The General Revaluation Transitional Relief caps bill increases caused by the 2023 revaluation.
The caps are a percentage of the amount you had to pay as at 31 March 2023.
The caps will not be adjusted for inflation and last for one financial year.
| Rateable Value (per property) | 2023 to 2024 | 2024 to 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Up to £20,000 | 12.5% | 40.6% |
| £20,001 to £100,000 | 25% | 87.5% |
| Over £100,000 | 37.5% | 140.6% |
The cap applies before any other reliefs.
This relief will automatically be applied to your bill.
