Interest will be charged on overdue rates at 11.64 % a year compound, calculated on daily charge balances until full payment is received.
Difficulty paying your rates
Sometimes circumstances make it difficult to pay rates. Contact us so we can discuss your situation and make a suitable arrangement for payment.
For more information, contact Redland City Council at:
- Telephone: (07) 3829 8999 – ask for the Revenue Collections Team
- Email: rcc@redland.qld.gov.au
If an arrangement is not made, and full payment of rates is not received by the date shown on the rates notice, the overdue rates will attract interest compounded daily and could result in legal action being taken.
Please note that if an overdue rate has remained unpaid for three years (or for a mining claim, three months), Redland City Council can sell the property to recover outstanding rates.
