Overdue property rates payments and penalties

When rates instalments are due

Visit due dates for rates payments for this year's quarterly payments.

When we apply penalties

We apply the following penalties:

  • If you do not pay your rates instalment in full by the due date, we charge 10 per cent of any amount owing.
  • If you have unpaid rates and penalties at the end of the rating year, we charge a further 10 per cent on this outstanding amount.
  • We will apply a further 10 per cent penalty to any amounts still unpaid six months after the end of the rating year.

We do not charge GST on rates penalties.

You should know

We credit payments towards the oldest overdue amount.
 
​In some cases, you may be eligible for a refund on a rates penalty.
