The period during which HoReCa entities will benefit from a reduced VAT rate of 6% has been extended until March 15, as a result of the National Commission on Public Health deciding to extend the ongoing sate of emergency as well.
The State Tax Inspectorate recalls that this fiscal relief measure applies to food and refreshments, but does not cover alcoholic beverages.
The measure also extends to accommodation services, spanning across hospitality categories, be it hotels, hostels or camps.
The 6% VAT rate has been applied to HoReCa services since 1 October 2021.
