The government is proposing to remove 24 percent VAT from corona home tests. VAT would be temporarily removed until 2022.
The presentation relates to the measures taken by the government of Prime Minister Sanna Marini (sd) to facilitate the fight against the corona pandemic. The intention is to lower the prices of home tests.
The practical effects of the abolition of VAT will ultimately depend on whether the tax reduction is passed on to prices. The government’s proposal estimates that, on the basis of the information available, it can be assumed that the tax reduction will be partially passed on to prices.
