Failure to Submit Written Option Declaration for VAT Pauschaling in Agricultural Business

  • UVA under regular taxation does not replace the need for an option declaration explicitly waiving the VAT lump sum
  • Decision made by the Federal Finance Court on a complaint against VAT assessments for 2017 and 2018
  • The complaint was dismissed as unfounded
  • Ordinary revision to the Administrative Court is not allowed
  • The complainant is a farmer with a mixed agricultural operation
  • The tax authority requested clarification on VAT declarations for 2017 and 2018
  • The farmer claimed that monthly VAT returns were submitted to the tax authority
  • The farmer argued that he was not aware of the need for a written option declaration for regular taxation due to the monthly VAT returns being processed by the tax authority.
