- Habitual exporters who purchase goods and services exceeding their VAT exemption limit (plafond) must pay the VAT due on the excess amount.
- The deductible VAT can later be requested as a refund.
- This was established by the Italian Supreme Court (ordinance no. 30181, November 16).
- In cases of exceeding the plafond (splafonamento), the buyer or client is responsible for paying the VAT instead of the supplier.
- The resulting VAT credit can be deducted, carried forward, or requested as a refund to maintain tax neutrality.
