Commercial rates collection in Tipp

Tipperary Co Council’s commercial rates accruals for 2023 amounted to €36,839,065. This may be adjusted downwards as results from appeals to the Valuation Tribunal. Arrears of €5,921,516 were brought forward from 2022, giving the total amount to be collected as €42,760,581. Receipts of €2,759,317 were recorded up to March 28, 2023.

This month’s meeting of the council was informed that approximately 3,850 (88%) of customers are eligible to benefit from the Early Payment Scheme this year. If fully subscribed and availed of, this could achieve total reductions in their rates of €653,680.

The scheme is open to customers with arrears on their accounts where certain requirements are met. Commercial rates remain payable on vacant property.
