Information on VAT for Events and Concerts
October 16, 2025
The tax department's circular explains when VAT applies to concerts and events. A reduced VAT of 5% is applicable for tickets to concerts, theatrical performances, and similar events without food services. If food services are included, then a VAT of 9% is charged. The clear categorization aims to reduce misunderstandings and injustices for taxpayers. Citizens should stay informed to ensure they pay the correct tax rate.
