Impact of Negative VAT on Tax Debt: Reduction Process and Prioritization Steps

  • Negative VAT value can reduce tax debt
  • Applied on the day of declaration submission
  • Order of application: main debt, fines, penalties
  • Defined by the difference between tax obligations and tax credit
  • If tax credit exceeds obligations, negative VAT value is created
  • Can be used to reduce VAT debt, including deferred debt
  • Reflected in line 20 of the VAT declaration
  • If used for debt reduction, also noted in line 20.1
  • Must match data in Appendix 2 of the declaration
  • All tax charges, including negative VAT, are recorded in the taxpayer’s integrated card
  • If negative VAT is less than or equal to tax debt, debt is reduced in stages
  • If negative VAT exceeds debt, excess can be used in future periods or for budget reimbursement
