CFE Opinion Statement on the VAT Treatment of Compensation Payments

The CFE has issued an Opinion Statement on the VAT Treatment of Compensation Payments.

It is clear from the case law of the Court of Justice that not all compensation payments are subject to VAT. The difficulty is determining the demarcation line between cases that give rise to a liability and those that do not. The demarcation is not just potentially significant in determining whether a payment paid to a supplier is subject to VAT but also on the related question of whether a compensation payment made by a supplier should be considered to result in a reduction in the consideration for a supply.
