VAT Liability of Short Professional Training Courses in Body Therapy – Not Exempt as Vocational Education

  • The Danish Tax Council (Skatterådet) could not confirm that two specific continuing education courses in body therapy (9 and 12 days) were VAT-exempt as professional education.
  • Both courses were considered to have a primarily professional purpose and targeted professionals with relevant experience, providing skills for professional use.
  • The courses were classified as short-term, non-qualifying continuing education and thus considered as commercial course activities.
  • Since the courses were run for profit and mainly aimed at businesses and institutions, they were subject to VAT despite falling under the general VAT exemption for professional education.
