Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Rates 2024

Introduction

The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is charged at a set amount per square metre of additional floor area as detailed in the relevant Charging Schedule and increases each year on 1 January, using the value published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

The CIL rates to be charged from 1 January 2024 for each charging schedule are available using the links on the left. The CIL Calculator will give an approximate value for the liability payable on a chargeable development. Please note, the published rates and calculator are for reference only and approximate to two decimal places. Therefore, the liability calculated may not be the actual value for the floor area proposed that is stated on the Liability Notice.
