- Belgium’s draft VAT bill extends the 6% reduced VAT rate to all supplies, acquisitions, and imports of art, antiques, and collectibles.
- The bill restricts the VAT margin scheme for goods acquired or imported at the reduced 6% rate to prevent competitive distortions in the EU market.
- Place-of-supply rules for virtual events and streaming services are updated, taxing both B2B and B2C services based on the customer’s location rather than the event’s physical location.
- The bill aligns Belgian VAT law with EU Directive 2022/542 and grants the King expanded authority to address tax issues via Royal Decree.
