- Distribution of goods by solidarity purchasing groups (GAS) exclusively to members and without markups is not subject to VAT, as these are not commercial activities.
- This exemption applies if the conditions of art. 4 of DPR 633/72 (valid until December 31, 2035) are met.
- GAS are non-profit associations for collective purchasing and distribution of goods to members only, with ethical, social, and environmental aims, and without sales or catering activities.
- GAS organized as social promotion associations (APS) fall under the Third Sector Code only if registered in the national Third Sector Register (RUNTS) as APS.
