Impact of New VAT Rules on Personnel Secondment for Public Entities

  • Important modification to the VAT regime for personnel secondment and lending services introduced with the conversion of DL 131/2024
  • New regulation aims to align Italian legislation with EU Court of Justice guidelines
  • Italian legislator abolished the previous rule excluding VAT for personnel secondment with mere cost reimbursement starting January 1, 2025
  • New rules make personnel secondment and lending services subject to VAT if there is a direct link between service and compensation
  • New rules apply to agreements made or renewed from January 1, 2025, with previous taxpayer actions unaffected unless definitively assessed
  • VAT taxable base includes total reimbursement amount for each seconded worker, including all additional costs
  • New legislation impacts entities with partial or total VAT non-deductibility, such as financial or healthcare groups
  • Public entities purchasing services for non-commercial activities will face increased costs under the new regime
  • The nature of the entity purchasing the service does not affect the VAT applicability imposed by the service provider
