In this paper, we first show that the central height of the unit group of the integral group ring of a periodic group is at most 2. We then give a complete characterization of the $n$ -centre of that unit group. The $n$ -centre of the unit group is either the centre or the second centre (for $n\,\ge \,2$ ).
