As a general rule, VAT presented by the seller to the buyer and paid to the budget when selling goods is deductible if these goods are returned to the seller ( clause 5, article 171 of the Tax Code ). The deduction is made in full after the relevant adjustment transactions are recorded, but no later than one year from the date of return.
