A new building is treated differently for VAT purposes than an old building, which is why it is important to determine whether a building is old or new. For a new construction, this is not difficult. For existing buildings that are being upgraded, it is not always easy to determine if the works are to be seen as a simple renovation or a transformation into a new building.
