- A recent ruling by the Italian Supreme Court states that VAT is deductible for properties registered as residential but used for professional or business activities. This decision contradicts the usual practice of the Italian tax authorities. The court ruled that VAT related to a garage, part of a property used for professional activities, is deductible even if the property is registered as residential. The tax authorities argued that VAT should be non-deductible based on specific legal provisions, but the court found this argument unfounded.
