Standard payment terms

Our business standard payment terms for vendors dealing with Veolia UK companies are 45 days end of month from the receipt of the invoice (i.e. vendors are paid at the end of the month following a 45 day period from the date of receipt by Veolia of a valid invoice). However we do still have some legacy payment terms which are affecting our paid on time statistics.

Dispute resolution

We work with our suppliers to ensure that disputes are resolved in a timely manner. If a supplier has a dispute they should call our Financial Shared Service Centre on 020 3567 2270 or email Accounts Payable on [email protected]. According to our Terms & Conditions, which are available on our website, excluding the payment of invoices subject to a bona fide dispute, if the Customer fails to make a payment due to the Supplier under this Contract by the due date, then the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgement. Interest under this clause will accrue at 2% a year above the Bank of England base rate. The parties agree that the remedies under this clause are sufficient for the purposes of the Late

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
