- A VAT correction according to § 16 Abs 3 Z 1 UStG is permissible for (partially) uncollectible receivables if there is a (subsequent) change in the taxable amount and can be proven.
- The correction must be made for the assessment period (ex nunc) in which the change actually occurred. The correction cannot be made in a later period.
- The sale of a distressed receivable at a lower purchase price does not necessarily mean that there is a complete or partial uncollectibility at that time.
- BFG 9 May 2023 RV/7102588/2022.
