VAT Adjustment for Real Estate: Applying New Rates to Prepaid Advances in 2026

  • VAT on real estate deliveries is determined by the rate in effect at the time of actual delivery, not when the advance was paid.
  • If full payment was made at 19% VAT before 1 August 2025, but delivery occurs after the rate increases to 21%, the VAT must be adjusted to 21%.
  • The supplier is required to recalculate and adjust the VAT to the new rate at the time of transfer, even if payment was made in advance.
  • This adjustment is necessary to comply with the Fiscal Code and avoid double taxation.
