On the proposal of Finance Minister Vincent Van Peteghem, the Council of Ministers approves a draft royal decree extending the reduced VAT rate of 6% on mouth masks and hydroalcoholic gels by three months.
The intention of the draft is to ensure continuity in the application of this reduced VAT rate for those goods. This measure contributes to supporting the protective equipment needed to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The temporary extension is intended for the period from 1 October to 31 December 2021.
