Will business rates increase in 2023? Short answer? For most businesses, yes.

The next nationwide business rates revaluation is to take place on 1.4.23, placing new rateable values on all properties liable for business rates.

New figures will be based on rental levels prevailing in April 2021.

The biggest changes will likely be seen in the retail sector, where reductions in liability are anticipated.

Properties in the logistics and industrial sector are expected to see substantial increases.
