VAT Exemption for the Transfer of a Ship by an Inactive Company: DGT Consultation

  • The consultation is about the transmission of a ship by an inactive company that had its tax identification number revoked.
  • The company wants to acquire the ships from another company that used them for manufacturing.
  • The inactive company had its tax identification number revoked for not filing tax declarations, but it has since been reinstated.
  • The question is whether the delivery of the ships will be subject to VAT.
  • The tax authority states that the status of being a taxpayer for VAT purposes remains until the effective cessation of the business activity.
  • The transmission of the ships is considered subject to VAT but exempt from it.
