- Estonia has objected to the proposed ViDA reforms, citing concerns about the new rules for taxing short-term rentals and passenger transportation in the platform economy. Estonia argues that the approach goes against VAT neutrality and leads to tax cascading.
- New Zealand has implemented similar rules but offers a flat-rate credit to service providers, returning a portion of the collected GST to them, unlike the proposed EU rules. Alternative VAT solutions, such as amending national legislation and implementing less disruptive models, are proposed to address competition issues in the platform economy.
