- The DGT states that it is not possible to deduct the expenses of suits for VAT or income tax purposes, even if they are used solely for the profession of a lawyer.
- Only expenses directly and exclusively related to the business or professional activity of the taxpayer are deductible for VAT.
- Suits, as general clothing, do not qualify for deduction as they are not directly and exclusively related to the business or professional activity.
- The same applies for income tax deductions, as there is no correlation between the expenses of purchasing suits and the income generated from the professional activity of a lawyer.
