10% VAT Exemption Denied for Underground Tourist Path Safety Measures

• The Italian Revenue Agency clarified that the 10% VAT rate does not apply to safety measures for an underground tourist path
• This decision was detailed in response to inquiry number 261 on December 17, 2024
• The 10% VAT rate is typically for primary and secondary urbanization works as specified in various Italian laws and regulations
• These works include buildings used for housing, education, healthcare, and social care but must meet specific criteria
• The safety intervention for the underground path does not qualify as urbanization work and thus does not benefit from the reduced VAT rate
• Additionally, the path does not qualify under the category of buildings used for collective interest purposes, which also prevents the application of the reduced VAT rate
