Your rates can be paid annually, by quarterly instalment or by arranging weekly, fortnightly or monthly direct debits.

Instalment dates each year are 31 August, 30 November, 28 February and 31 May.

Interest is charged on any rates not paid on 30 June at the rate of 6 percent. Instalments not paid by their due dates also incur interest, calculated daily, at the rate of 6 percent from the instalment due date.
