VAT Treatment of Staff Secondment Post-1988 Law Repeal: Operational Guidelines and Compliance

  • The circular addresses VAT treatment of staff secondment following the repeal of a specific article from the 1988 financial law.
  • The repeal was enacted to implement a European Court of Justice ruling from March 2020.
  • From January 1, 2025, staff secondment operations reimbursed at cost are considered VAT-relevant services.
  • The circular provides operational instructions to ensure uniform action by offices.
  • It examines VAT treatment of secondment operations, the start date of changes, and other forms of staff provision.
  • The circular also considers parliamentary work related to the Save-Infringements decree.
  • Secondment operations are VAT-relevant if subjective, objective, and territorial requirements are met.
  • The subjective requirement is met if the employer conducts business or self-employment activities.
  • The objective requirement is met if the secondment is for consideration, meaning a direct link between secondment and payment.
  • The territorial requirement is met if the service is performed within the State, with exceptions for non-EU clients.
