- Legislative Decree 186/2025 expands VAT exemption for international transport of goods, including services provided by intermediaries.
- The previous limitation, which excluded VAT exemption for transport services rendered through subcontractors or intermediaries, is removed.
- Now, transport services for exporters, importers, transit holders, recipients, or shippers are VAT-exempt even if performed by intermediaries.
- This change addresses issues raised by previous regulations and tax authority interpretations, aligning national law more closely with EU case law.
- An official confirmation from the tax administration is recommended due to the complexity of the subject.
