Your council tax, benefits and business rates account will be offline.

From 5pm on Tuesday 7 October until 5pm Friday 10 October you will not be able to access your council tax, benefits or business rates account online. This is whilst we upgrade our system. Housing Benefit and Local Council Tax Support online application forms remain available. Our information line also remains open on 0330 123 0081. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Small business rate relief

Tell us about any changes to your business

If you take on another premises within or outside of Guildford borough, you need to tell us about the change.

We can then decide whether you still qualify for small business rate relief.

You need to have a MyGuildford account to tell us about the change. If you do not have a MyGuildford account you can set one up. 

Register or sign into your MyGuildford account

If you have not yet registered to access your business rates account online, there are more steps. You can then link your online business rates account to your MyGuildford.

To complete this step you will need the following information:

  • the business rates reference number - found on the latest bill. Do not include the "X" when you enter the reference.
  • the name of the business
  • the property postcode

Once you have linked your business rates account, you can go to the 'account summary' screen. You will see a list of 'quick links' on the right-hand side. You need to select the 'upload information or tell us about something else' link.
