Insufficiently Substantiated VAT Deduction Leaves Additional Assessments Intact

  • After a tax audit, the inspector imposed VAT reassessments on BV X for April–December 2018 and all of 2019, plus 10% default penalties.
  • The inspector found part of the claimed input VAT was insufficiently supported by invoices, and some invoices did not clearly show whether the costs were business-related or private expenses of the director-shareholder.
  • BV X argued it was entitled to full VAT deduction because the invoices existed and the services were supplied to it.
  • The Zeeland-West-Brabant District Court rejected BV X’s claim, leaving the VAT reassessments and penalties in place.
