Passive VAT Liability Arises from Marketing Initiatives, Regardless of Initial Land Acquisition Purpose

  • Subjective VAT liability arises from marketing initiatives.
  • It is irrelevant if the sold lands were not acquired for economic activity.
  • A person can be considered a VAT subject if they sell land from personal assets using a professional agent for marketing.
  • If the land is owned by a married couple, VAT liability can be attributed to their legal community if they jointly conduct the sale and assume economic risks.
  • This was established by the EU Court of Justice in a recent ruling.
