Business Rates

Business Rates (or National Non-Domestic Rates / NNDR) are charged on most non-domestic properties such as shops, offices, pubs, warehouse, factories, holiday rental homes and guest houses.

Business Rates are based on rules set by Government.

Anglia Revenues Partnership (ARP) deals with business rates on behalf of Fenland District Council and several other authorities.

Report a change of circumstance

It is important that you tell ARP if your business circumstances change, as it may affect your Business Rates. Examples include:

  • if your property becomes empty or occupied
  • if you receive Small Business Rate Relief and you take on another premises
  • if the use of your property changes
  • if you get Discretionary Rate Relief and there is a significant change to your finances or what the property is used for.

Relief and Exemptions

Some properties can get a reduction on their Business Rates.

Certain properties are exempt from paying Business Rates.


Empty Properties

When a property becomes empty, it is usually exempt from Business Rates for the first 3 months that it is empty. This may be longer in certain cases.
