- The EU has approved Italy’s request to extend its special anti-VAT fraud rules for business-to-government supplies.
- Until June 30, 2029, Italy can continue using the split payment mechanism, sending VAT on public-sector supplies to a blocked tax authority account instead of the supplier.
- The measure applies to supplies of goods and services to public authorities, including companies controlled by central or local authorities.
- Italy may also continue requiring electronic invoices for business-to-government transactions.
- The extension is meant to combat significant VAT fraud detected since 2014.
