Over 8,000 commercial properties in Lambeth have to pay business rates to Lambeth Council. It is the way that businesses and others make a contribution towards the cost of our local services. You will have to pay business rates if you use a building or part of a building for non-domestic purposes.
We keep a proportion of the business rates paid locally. The money we collect is used to pay for the services provided in your area, together with:
- revenue from council taxpayers
- locally generated income
- grants from central government.
