- In order for a VAT entrepreneur to deduct VAT on rent, they must opt for taxed rental themselves
- A man engaged in various activities, including a wholesale business and rental/sale of transport equipment, rented space from a foundation
- The foundation charged VAT on the rent, which the man wanted to deduct, but the tax inspector refused
- The option for taxed rental was agreed upon in a previous agreement with a connected company, but not in the man’s rental agreement
- The option for taxed rental cannot automatically transfer to a new tenant
- The foundation incorrectly charged VAT, and the man is not entitled to deduct this input tax
