- The Italian Revenue Agency clarified VAT treatment for services purchased by an Italian company on behalf of a non-EU client for events in Italy, under a mandate without representation.
- Services like catering, accommodation, ticketing, and travel are not considered “accessory” to event access services.
- These services must be invoiced to the non-EU client according to the specific VAT territoriality rules for each service.
- Only services directly related to granting access to events (e.g., ticket sales) are considered “accessory” for VAT purposes, as defined by EU regulations and court rulings.
