The Belgian Parliament will adopt new legislation regarding various provisions on Value-Added Tax (VAT). The new legislation includes changes to the VAT exemption for certain non-profit organizations, the supply of furnished accommodation, the deduction of VAT based on the actual use method, the abolition of a flat-rate VAT scheme and VAT refunds for companies based outside the EU.
