If you already know how much you need to pay, you can pay directly in one of two ways:
You can arrange a direct debit to make regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly deductions of agreed amounts. You also have the option to make payments every second month.
These amounts are automatically adjusted for you each year when your rates change, so you don’t need to visit your bank. Each time you receive a rate account it'll show the amount and date of agreed deductions in that period.
How do I set up a direct debit?
You can pay your rates in person by EFTPOS (excluding credit card) at our building at 30 Laings Road or at selected NZ Post locations. If you’re paying at a PostShop, please take your rates invoice with you.
Rates can also be paid at Greater Wellington Regional Council offices at 100 Cuba Street, Te Aro, Wellington 6011 or 34 Chapel Street, Masterton.
You can also make your payment by:
To pay using any of these methods, quote your account number (as shown under the property details in your payment reference) and make payment into our bank account:

Westpac New Zealand Limited |

Insert your Property Account No. |
If you’re paying by automatic payment, make sure you pay each instalment in full by the due date to avoid any late payment penalties.
There are six rates payment instalments each year, running from July to June.
Instalment | Invoice date | Due date |
---|---|---|
One | 20 July | 20 August |
Two | 20 September | 20 October |
Three | 20 November | 20 December |
Four | 20 January | 20 February |
Five | 20 March | 20 April |
Six | 20 May | 20 June |
Unless you've come to a prior arrangement with us, a penalty of 10% will be added to any unpaid instalment amount after the due date.
A further 10% is charged every six months on any rates still owing from previous rating years.
If you have overdue rates, please contact us to make arrangements for payment.
If a property has been sold we need to be notified of the sale. Until we’re advised of the change, the original owner is responsible for paying the rates. Your solicitor will be able to advise you of rates payable at the time the property changes ownership.
