Water and Sewage Services: VAT Taxation, Deduction, and Proportional Calculation for Municipalities

  • Providing water supply and sewage disposal services is a taxable economic activity subject to VAT
  • Utilizing infrastructure for water supply and sewage disposal for internal recipients is not subject to VAT
  • Municipalities have the right to deduct part of the VAT from invoices related to water supply and sewage infrastructure investments
  • The deduction key should be calculated based on the proportion of water supplied to external recipients in the total water supplied
  • Municipalities can use a more representative method for calculating proportions based on the water supplied/sewage disposed to external recipients in the total amount
  • This method best reflects the municipality’s activities and purchases made.
