- School parents’ councils are generally not subject to VAT and are not separate VAT taxpayers.
- Under VAT centralization rules for local government units, the municipality is the VAT taxpayer for itself and its organizational units, including schools and related budgetary units.
- Since centralization, VAT returns/JPK and invoices should use the municipality’s NIP, not the school’s.
- In transactions involving a parents’ council at a school, the invoice should be issued to the municipality, not to the school.
