- The VAT treatment for the detachment and lending of personnel has changed, making even simple cost reimbursements taxable.
- The new VAT rules apply from January 1, 2025, following the repeal of a specific law article.
- The changes align Italian law with a 2020 EU Court of Justice ruling.
- The ruling states that personnel detachment, even with just cost reimbursement, is a taxable service if there is a direct link between the service and the payment.
- Subjective requirement: The employer must primarily conduct business or self-employment activities.
- Non-commercial entities must perform the detachment within their business activities to be taxable.
