Commercial Rates Incentive Waiver Scheme 2026
Applications are now invited for Kildare County Council’s Commercial Rates Incentive Waiver Scheme for 2026
Kildare County Council has opened applications for their Commercial Rates Incentive Waiver Scheme for 2026. The scheme, which aims to encourage reoccupation of vacant commercial premises in Kildare, offers a three-year partial waiver to eligible entrepreneurs/businesses who occupy a property that has been vacant for a period of at least two years.
An attractive, vibrant commercial area contributes positively to a location’s retail and economic growth, by boosting footfall and encouraging a longer stay by shoppers and visitors. This scheme, which will complement the highly successful Shop Front Grants Scheme already available through Kildare County Council, aims to promote business creation, enhance the prosperity of our commercial spaces and improve the economic welfare of Kildare’s towns and villages.
Further details and the on-line application form can be accessed through Kildare County Council’s website on
