No Right to Deduct VAT on Project Expenses by Volunteer Fire Brigade

  • The letter is an individual interpretation from the Director of the National Tax Information regarding the right to deduct VAT expenses for a project carried out by the Volunteer Fire Brigade (OSP).
  • The interpretation states that the OSP does not have the right to deduct VAT from the expenses incurred for the project.
  • The interpretation is based on the fact that the OSP does not engage in economic activities subject to VAT and is not registered as a VAT taxpayer.
  • The equipment purchased for the project will not be used for taxable activities.
  • Therefore, the VAT should be considered as an eligible cost for the project.
  • The interpretation is necessary for the payment application for the project.
  • The OSP relies on grants and donations for its funding and does not provide taxable services.
  • The interpretation confirms that the OSP is not entitled to a VAT refund for the project expenses.
