Incorrect Individual Interpretation – VAT on the export of excavator

  • The Director of the National Tax Information states that the taxpayer’s position regarding the tax consequences of a specific transaction is incorrect.
  • The taxpayer requested an individual interpretation regarding the VAT on the delivery of an excavator exported abroad.
  • The request includes issues such as the classification of the transaction as a domestic delivery, the moment when the tax liability arises, the omission of the transaction in a previous tax return, and the adjustment of the tax return for the period in which the delivery was made.
  • The taxpayer sold an excavator to a Spanish entity, with both parties being registered for intra-community transactions.
  • The sale was documented through email correspondence, and the taxpayer was responsible for organizing the transport of the excavator to the buyer.
  • The excavator has not yet been transported due to external factors, and the exact date of transport is unknown.
  • The taxpayer issued an invoice for the intra-community delivery with a 0% VAT rate and received payment from the buyer.
  • The excavator will be transported to Spain in September 2023 due to road construction works.
