Artwork Intermediation under VAT Mandate Rules: Resale of Art Subject to Margin Scheme

  • Resale of art goods is subject to margin regime in some cases
  • VAT applies if the seller of the artwork is a VAT subject
  • Different VAT rates apply depending on whether the sale is made by the artist or by someone else
  • Artists often sell their works through professional intermediaries using the mandate scheme
  • If the intermediary acts without representation, there is assumed to be a double transfer of the goods for VAT purposes
