Revaluation

The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) regularly updates the rateable values of all business and other non-domestic properties (properties that are not just private homes) in England and Wales. This is called a revaluation.

Revaluation 2023 will impact the rateable values of all 2.14 million non-domestic properties in England and Wales. Rateable values are the amount of rent a property could have been let for on a set valuation date. For the 2023 valuation, which came into effect on 1 April 2023, that date was 1st April 2021.

Revaluations are carried out to reflect changes in the property market, which means that Business Rates bills are based on more up-to-date information.

What to do if you think your rateable value is too high?

From 1st April 2023, you will need to use a Business Rates valuation account to tell the VOA if you think your rateable value is too high. You must continue to pay your Business Rates as normal until a decision has been made.

What to do if your property details need changing?

To tell the VOA about changes to your property details (such as floor area sizes and parking) you need a Business Rates valuation account. The VOA may accept your changes and update the valuation.
