- The Dutch Supreme Court held that VAT-taxed rental of a workroom does not require exclusive business use.
- However, any actual residential use of the room, even minimal, blocks the option for VAT-taxed rental.
- The landlord bears the burden of proving the room is not also used as part of the home if challenged.
- In this case, the workroom’s incidental household use meant the VAT deduction on construction costs was denied, and the taxpayer’s appeal failed.
