National Non-Domestic Rates are the way businesses and other occupiers of non-domestic property contribute towards the costs of local authority services. The tax is set by the government and collected by us.

If you work from home you may have to pay business rates on the part of your house that you use for work. You will still have to pay council tax on the rest of the property. This external link goes to Business Link.
Changing your premises may affect the rateable value, which in turn may affect the amount of business rates you should pay. This external link goes to Business Link.
