- A major VAT reform is being planned in Germany, centered on the “21-10-0” formula.
- It would not change the overall system, but would significantly shift the existing tax-rate structure.
- The coalition aims to raise additional revenue while easing the burden on consumers through a zero tax rate on food.
- The reform has already been discussed in the coalition committee and could become one of the most far-reaching VAT changes in decades.
