- A new 5% VAT rate is introduced for certain social-health services provided by social enterprises established under Book V, Title V of the Civil Code.
- The reduced rate applies to services for elderly and disadvantaged groups (e.g., disabled adults, drug addicts, AIDS patients, migrants, homeless, asylum seekers, prisoners, victims of trafficking).
- The benefit extends to social cooperatives, their consortia, and, following the new law, also to social enterprises, including those in corporate form.
- Social enterprises are now included in some VAT exemptions for health, educational, and social-assistance services, but those in corporate form are excluded from certain exemptions.
- The 5% rate aims to provide favorable treatment to social enterprises not eligible for VAT exemption, addressing previous asymmetries with social cooperatives.
