- Flat-rate VAT taxation in agriculture and forestry (§22 UStG) applies only to unprocessed primary products. The sale of processed wood products by a flat-rate farmer/forester is not considered primary production and is subject to the standard VAT rate of 20%. Input VAT related to processing (e.g., sawing, transport, contract work) can be claimed proportionally.
