VAT Rate in Developer Assignment: Different Rates, Legal Uncertainties, and Pending Resolutions

• NSA has not yet decided which VAT rate should be applied in the assignment of rights from a developer agreement
• There is a debate whether the assignment should be taxed at 23% or 8% VAT rate
• The issue is whether the assignment should be considered a service or a delivery of a residential unit
• The correct VAT rate depends on the legal question of how the assignment should be classified
• The tax authority ruled that the higher 23% VAT rate should be applied in certain cases
• A court in Szczecin disagreed with this ruling and argued for the lower 8% VAT rate
• The case has been referred to a larger panel for further consideration and resolution of the legal issue
