- The Israel Tax Authority has published reportable positions for the 2025 tax year, including two new VAT-related positions.
- Taxpayers must disclose if they have adopted a position contrary to the Authority’s published positions, if the tax benefit exceeds NIS 2 million in one year or NIS 5 million over four years.
- The first new position requires real estate dealers to refund input VAT if residential units, initially intended for VAT-taxable sale, are later approved for VAT-exempt leasing.
- The second new position states that construction services provided for public functions for a local authority, in exchange for the authority waiving payment, are subject to VAT.
