Danish Court Rules Influencer Advertising Income Subject to VAT, Not Journalistic Exemption

  • The National Tax Court ruled that influencer income from advertising, whether money or products, is subject to VAT.
  • VAT exemption for journalistic activity does not apply if there is no editorial freedom and the content is predetermined advertising.
  • VAT applies to all compensation, including products, unless it is proven the items were not received as payment.
  • VAT assessments can be reduced if documentation shows items were not received as consideration.
