VAT group guarantee exemption must be assessed on the entity making the offset

  • The Italian Supreme Court ruled on when a guarantee can be waived for intra-group VAT offsets under Article 73 of DPR 633/72.
  • It confirmed that the VAT-credit certification rules in Article 38-bis also apply to intra-group compensation.
  • However, the requirement that the business has been operating for at least 5 years must be checked for the specific taxpayer making the offset, not the transferred business activity.
  • A company’s takeover of a branch or business line does not count toward the 5-year period if the company itself is newly formed.
