- The TEAC ruled that TPV (point-of-sale terminal) leasing and maintenance services are subject to VAT and not exempt as financial operations.
- It held these services are separate technical services, not accessory to the exempt payment/acquiring service.
- The taxpayer’s request was partly accepted because VAT input incurred on those services can be deducted under the Spanish VAT law.
- The decision confirms the AEAT’s tax treatment and reinforces prior TEAC doctrine from 2022 on TPVs.
