The status of entrepreneur for public commercial entities and their liability for VAT according to the activity performed

A public-owned commercial entity engaged in radio and television broadcasting sought clarification regarding the deductibility of input VAT. The Directorate-General for Taxes (DGT) clarifies that, when performing both taxable and non-taxable activities, a reasonable imputation criterion must be applied to goods and services used for both purposes.

The question raised

Question raised: Deductibility of VAT paid.

The DGT's ruling

Taxable persons who jointly carry out taxable and non-taxable operations pursuant to Article 7.8 of Law 37/1992 may deduct the input tax on goods and services intended simultaneously for both through a reasonable and homogeneous imputation criterion. Tax amounts for acquisitions intended exclusively for non-taxable operations shall not be deductible in any proportion. The imputation criterion must be maintained over time except for reasonable causes for its modification.
