VAT Refund Denied: Photographs Not Considered Works of Art Under Danish Tax Law

  • The Danish Tax Agency denied a company’s request to change its VAT liability for the period May 1, 2011 – June 30, 2021.
  • The company failed to prove that the photographs it sold qualified as “works of art” under VAT law.
  • “Works of art” require photographs to be signed and numbered by the artist, with a maximum of 30 copies.
  • The company’s photographs only had the company’s name and logo, not the artist’s signature or proper numbering.
  • The Tax Appeals Board upheld the Tax Agency’s decision.
