Leasing of accommodation with hotel-style services subject to 10% reduced VAT rate

A company requested clarification on whether residential rentals including services such as daily cleaning, laundry, and catering qualify for the VAT exemption applicable to housing. The DGT ruled that, as these operations provide services characteristic of the hotel industry, they are not exempt and must be taxed at the 10% reduced rate.

How it affects those involved
