Masks exempt from VAT until the end of the year
The decree then provides for the reduction of VAT on the goods necessary to contain and manage the epidemic. It will therefore pass, explains Palazzo Chigi, from 22% to 5% on medical and individual protection goods and devices such as lung ventilators, masks and other safeguards for worker safety. But until December 31, 2020, the sale of these goods – therefore masks and security devices – is totally exempt from VAT.
