- Challenge to Deemed Supplier Regime: Nomad Stays has filed a legal action against the Deemed Supplier Regime (DSR) provisions in the VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) directive, seeking their annulment from the Court of Justice of the EU, arguing that these provisions impose unjustified regulatory burdens on short-term rental platforms.
- Critique of Regulatory Assumptions: The company contends that the new VAT rules incorrectly equate short-term rental services with hotel operations, overlooking the diversity within the digital nomad accommodation sector and threatening the economic viability of independent operators, thus violating principles of fiscal neutrality and legal certainty.
- Legal Arguments and Call for Policy Reevaluation: Nomad Stays bases its challenge on seven key legal arguments, including errors in assessment and violations of principles such as proportionality and equal treatment. The company urges policymakers to reconsider VAT regulations for digital platforms to foster entrepreneurship and innovation while maintaining fair competition.
