- A recent ruling by the TEAC addresses the deductibility of VAT on leased vehicles used for mixed purposes by employees.
- The taxpayer must prove the vehicles are used for business purposes to deduct VAT.
- If the vehicles are used for mixed purposes, a 50% presumption of business use applies.
- The 50% presumption can only be adjusted if the administration proves a different level of business use.
- The administration cannot use collective bargaining hours to determine business use.
- The administration must use alternative methods to prove business use.
- The 50% presumption is rebuttable, meaning the taxpayer can prove a higher level of business use.
- The administration must prove a lower level of business use if the taxpayer claims a higher deduction.
