Doubts often arise concerning VAT on a flat rented by a company for residential purposes. Is such a flat exempt from this tax? The law says that the condition for exemption from the costs mentioned is the cumulative fulfilment of the statutory requirements concerning the provision of services, namely providing the service on one's own account, the residential nature of the premises, and the residential purpose of the lease.
