The Belgian Tax Authorities published on 15 June 2022 a new FAQ concerning the VAT treatment of the provision of furnished accommodation (see: NL / FR – hereafter: ‘new FAQ’). The new FAQ provides guidance and clarifications about the amended scope of the exception on the VAT exemption, effective from 1 July 2022.
Additionally, the Belgian Tax Authorities also published an FAQ concerning the temporary application of the reduced VAT rate of 6% for solar panels, heat pumps and solar water heaters (see NL / FR). This FAQ is outside the scope of this news item. For background information on this temporary measure, see our earlier news item here.
