Legal Decision on Taxation of Horse Racing Activities: Case Study and Implications for VAT

  • The Supreme Administrative Court ruled that a person who competes with 3-4 horses in trotting races against a starting fee is engaged in economic activity subject to VAT
  • Skatteverket will review its position on taxable persons engaged in economic activity in light of this ruling
  • The case involved a company providing horses for racing, with the court determining it to be engaged in economic activity
  • Skatteverket disagrees with the court’s ruling and will review its guidelines on taxable persons engaged in economic activity in trotting and galloping races
