- Transfer of goods, services, or fixed assets within a legal entity (from the main company to a branch or vice versa) does not constitute a taxable event for VAT purposes.
- This is because ownership rights remain unchanged within the legal entity.
- Branches are not considered legal entities and are not subject to VAT registration.
- The transfer of goods, services, or fixed assets within the balance of the VAT payer (main company) is not subject to VAT if the main company is a registered VAT payer and accounts for its business activities and the branch’s activities as a single VAT payer.
