Post-transaction rebate reduces VAT taxable base

  • Additional goods provided to a buyer after reaching a certain turnover threshold are considered a discount on the price of goods already sold, not a free transfer
  • The discount is in the form of extra goods given to the buyer based on individual agreements
  • The company believed that by providing these discounts, they could lower the VAT taxable base and the amount of tax due on the sale of goods
  • The company argued that this was a return of part of the price of goods, leading to a reduction in turnover value and tax amount due
  • The company referred to Article 29a of the VAT Act, which allows for the reduction of the taxable base by discounts given after the sale.
