- New Zealand Inland Revenue is consulting on a draft interpretation statement for the GST reduced value rule for long-stay commercial accommodation.
- The rule allows a 9% effective GST rate (instead of 15%) by reducing the taxable value of “domestic goods and services” to 60% for qualifying long-stay commercial dwellings.
- It aims to align GST treatment for long-term commercial accommodation with GST-exempt residential tenancies.
- The rule applies to hotels, motels, hostels, boarding houses, B&Bs, serviced apartments, and rest homes, but excludes meals and certain other services.
- The consultation period ends on 29 May 2026.
