Dutch Court Rules: No “Eigenbouwer” Status, No Reverse Charge

  • A company buys, renovates, and sells houses.
  • They work with contractors and a construction supervisor.
  • One contractor did not pay VAT.
  • The inspector classified the company as a “self-builder” and imposed VAT assessments and penalties.
  • The court ruled that the company was not a “self-builder” because their involvement in the construction did not go beyond that of a regular client.
  • The VAT assessments and penalties were overturned.
