Municipality Cannot Deduct VAT from Sewage Treatment Plant Access Road Construction Costs

• The Supreme Administrative Court ruled that a municipality cannot deduct VAT from expenses for building an access road to a sewage treatment plant
• The municipality argued the road was exclusively used by plant employees and visitors and was the only access route making it essential infrastructure
• The municipality claimed the road was an integral part of infrastructure necessary for providing sewage treatment services to residents and businesses
• Despite these arguments the court determined the municipality has no right to VAT deduction for the access road construction costs
• The case involved questions about VAT deduction using pre-coefficients for municipal infrastructure projects
