- The Italian Revenue Agency deemed the transfer of real estate by a municipality to a concessionaire company as relevant for VAT purposes.
- This transfer was part of a public-private partnership for urban redevelopment.
- Due to high costs, the contribution was made through real estate transfer to maintain financial balance.
- The municipality already had a VAT position, raising questions about its status as a VAT subject.
- The key factor was the legal relationship between the municipality and the concessionaire.
- The relationship was contractual, based on bilateral agreements with mutual obligations.
- Contract terms included resolution clauses, penalties for non-compliance, and damage compensation.
- The agency concluded the real estate transfer was relevant for VAT purposes.
