- The sanction imposed by the Bar Association on a member for committing an offense is not subject to VAT
- The sanction can consist of a temporary suspension of professional practice or a monetary fine
- The payment of the fine by the members is a disciplinary sanction, not a consideration for a taxable transaction
- The amount of the fine imposed is considered compensatory and not subject to VAT, so no tax should be charged on it.
