The Valuation Office has published its 2026 valuation scales for assessing different sections of business properties, with rates varying according to floor level and property use classification. These scales are the official benchmarks used to determine the rateable value of commercial and industrial buildings for rating purposes. The new scales take effect from April 2026 and replace the previous year’s valuations. Customs and logistics professionals should verify if their operating premises are affected by any changes to their property band or valuation methodology.
