- The OFD Baden-Württemberg clarifies the correction of input tax under § 15a UStG when there is a change in legal assessment. If the legal assessment regarding the business connection was incorrect, a correction is not possible. The correction requires that the tax assessment for the year the incorrect deduction was made is final and unchangeable. If a business claims a union law tax exemption in a subsequent year, a change in circumstances occurs, allowing for a correction even if the deduction year is still changeable. The OFD provides an example to illustrate this.
