Italian Tax Ruling Clarifies VAT on Mediation Payments Between Slovenian Tenant and Bankrupt Italian Landlord

  • The ruling concerns VAT on payments under a mediation agreement between a Slovenian company (ALFA) and a bankrupt Italian landlord (BETA).
  • The original lease was VAT-exempt; disputes arose after BETA’s bankruptcy regarding VAT on subsequent payments.
  • Settlement payments of €76,000 are considered a generic service and subject to 22% VAT if ALFA is an Italian VAT taxpayer, or no VAT if ALFA is not established in Italy.
  • Future monthly payments of €3,000 remain VAT-exempt unless the bankruptcy estate opts for VAT taxation in a new agreement.
