Sign up for paperless e-billing for your business rates

Business rates - e-billing

Help us to help you. You can make your life easier, save paper and save us money by receiving your business rates bill electronically.

E-billing, also known as paperless billing, is faster and more efficient. It keeps our print and postage costs down so we can spend our limited funds in more effective ways to help residents.

Registering for e-billing means you can stop receiving a paper bill by post and start receiving your bill by email. You can easily find and store your bill and still have the option to print it or forward a copy to someone if you need to.

How it works

  • If you register for paperless e-billing all future correspondence will be sent to the email address you provide when you register.
  • Each person named on the bill may receive their own copy, but both people will need to register and provide their email address.
