Small Business Rate Relief
From 1 April 2005, the Government introduced the Small Business
Rate Relief Scheme (SBRR). This scheme means that the
Government has set two multipliers. For 2010/11 these values
are 41.4p for those who do not qualify for this relief (or do not
claim it) and 40.7p for those who qualify.
This Relief is only available to rate payers with either-
- One property whose rateable lower than £18,000, or
- One main property and other additional properties providing
those additional properties have rateable values less than £2,600,
and all properties in total do not exceed £18,000
