Italy Clarifies VAT on Mediation Agreement Payments for Warehouse Lease After Lessor Bankruptcy

  • The mediation agreement between the taxpayer and the lessor is considered a new agreement with new rent conditions and acts as a settlement.
  • Payments under the mediation agreement are treated as consideration for a supply of services.
  • The lessor’s waiver of immediate warehouse release is also considered a supply of services.
  • A 22% VAT rate applies to these payments if the taxpayer is a taxable person established in Italy.
