No VAT Relief for Milano-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics: Standard Rules Apply

  • The 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics and Paralympics will not benefit from any special VAT exemptions.
  • Some tax benefits (mainly IRES non-taxability for certain revenues) are provided for the Organizing Committee, but not for VAT, unlike EXPO Milano 2015.
  • Ordinary VAT rules apply to goods and services related to the event, including ticket sales, catering, and accommodation in Italy.
  • Certain B2B services (event organization, product stands, advertising) remain excluded from Italian VAT relevance.
  • Non-resident entities must comply with Italian VAT obligations, either by appointing a fiscal representative or direct identification, unless they have a permanent establishment in Italy.
