The NPPR Charge

Please note that as a result of the impact of Covid-19, there is a limited service available in relation to the processing of payments and dealing with queries on NPPR.

Registrations and Payments by credit card can be made online and this is the most efficient method of paying any liabilities due in respect of NPPR.

Payments by EFT will be processed as soon as possible. It is very important that all such payments clearly and fully identify the Account/Property being paid for.

There may be delays in the processing of payments made by cheque

2014 - NPPR

There is no NPPR Charge for 2014.

The annual NPPR charge of €200 per property applies for all years 2009-2013 and is payable online or by completing the relevant form available in the FAQ section of this website.

In order to maximise compliance and encourage payment of outstanding NPPR charge arrears, section 74 of the Local Government Reform Act 2014 provides for a period, from 2nd March 2014 to 31st August 2014, during which time no new late payment penalties will be applied to existing NPPR liabilities. This will provide an opportunity for owners to agree payment terms with local authorities.

If payment is not made in full by 31st August 2014 or if settlement terms are not agreed by that date, an additional late payment fee of €120 per liability date is applied on 1st September 2014. In addition, the entire NPPR liability is increased by a factor of 50% and then frozen. Full details of the charges applicable can be found in the FAQs.
