VAT for Solar Panel Installation in Residential Properties: Rates and Corrective Procedures

  • Companies installing solar panels in homes can apply a 10% VAT rate if they meet the requirements.
  • The person inquiring wants to know the applicable VAT rate and what to do if a different rate has been applied.
  • The tax rate for renovations and repairs in a private home is considered to be 10% if certain conditions are met.
  • The person carrying out the works should not provide materials or, if they do, the cost should not exceed 40% of the taxable base.
  • The recipient of the works should provide a written declaration confirming that they are not acting as a business, using the home for personal use, and that the construction or renovation of the home was completed at least two years before the start of the works.
  • The cost of materials provided for renovations or repairs should include all necessary materials, including subcontracted work.
  • If the works meet the criteria for renovations and repairs and the material cost does not exceed 40%, a reduced VAT rate of 10% applies. Otherwise, the general rate of 21% applies.
  • If a different rate has been applied incorrectly, the taxpayer should rectify the incorrectly determined tax amounts.
