Set up an automatic payment for property rates

Whakaritea he utunga aunoa mō ō reiti

An automatic payment allows you to set up the date and amount your bank can deduct from your account to pay your property rates.

Contact your bank to set it up.
Choose the amount and frequency of payments.
Make sure the payment amounts cover the rates you owe by the due date, to avoid a penalty.
Property rates change every year - you need to modify your payments to cover the changes.

Our tip

Set up a direct debit payment and avoid the need to monitor your property rates payments.
