- The Danish Tax Council ruled that the Christmas calendar, combining discount vouchers and lottery tickets, is VAT-exempt.
- The calendar is considered a single, indivisible supply, with the lottery element being the dominant characteristic from the consumer’s perspective.
- The VAT exemption applies because the product qualifies as a lottery under Danish and EU law, and is organized as a one-off event by an association, not as a commercial ongoing lottery.
- Whether the Gaming Authority grants permission is irrelevant for VAT exemption purposes.
