- The Supreme Administrative Court (NSA) ruled that cultural institutions, such as museums, can deduct 100% VAT on investments without applying the pre-proportion method.
- This decision overturns previous unfavorable rulings for taxpayers and is significant for various cultural entities like theaters, galleries, and libraries.
- The court stated that tax authorities cannot deny full VAT deduction solely because the investment is made by a cultural institution.
- Each case requires detailed analysis of expenses and their allocation to VAT-related activities, rather than automatic application of VAT restrictions.
- The case involved a museum seeking confirmation of its right to fully deduct VAT on EU co-financed renovation projects.
