- The Italian Revenue Agency issued Letter No. 111/2026 clarifying VAT rules for chain transactions and triangular arrangements.
- A German VAT-registered company asked whether buying from a Polish supplier and reselling to an Italian buyer, with goods shipped directly to Italy, qualified as a triangular transaction eligible for reverse charge.
- The Agency said the triangular simplification does not apply when the intermediary uses a VAT ID from a different member state than the country of dispatch.
- In that case, transport is attributed to the intermediary’s acquisition, affecting the VAT treatment.
