The Netherlands Increases the VAT Registration Threshold and Extends Applicability Until the End of 2024
Summary

Timeline
The measure is extended until the end of 2024.
Impact
Following the issuance of the Council Implementing Decision (EU) 2022/2542, the Netherlands was authorized to introduce a special measure derogating from Article 285 of VAT Directive. This measure exempts taxable persons from VAT until the end of 2024, as long as their annual turnover isn’t above EUR 25,000. The previous Decision (EU) 2018/1904 was set to expire at the end of 2022.
The Netherlands has officially submitted a proposal to the European Commission to extend the previously set period for the usage of the particular measure, which will now stay in effect until December 31, 2024.
The Council has approved the proposal from the European Commission, amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1904, authorizing the Netherlands to extend the applicability of the special measure, by which the taxable persons whose annual turnover is not higher than EUR 25,000 don’t have an obligation to register for VAT.
This special measure and related VAT threshold apply only to resident businesses, not foreign taxable persons.
