Norway Clarifies VAT Pre-Registration and Input VAT Deductions in Business Transfers

  • The Norwegian Tax Appeals Board clarified the tax treatment of input VAT in business transfers.
  • When a pre-registered VAT company transfers its business to another pre-registered VAT company, pre-registration conditions lapse.
  • The original company must be deleted from the VAT register and reverse its input VAT deductions.
  • The transfer is considered a liquidation under VAT law, requiring a refund of deducted input VAT.
