If companies organized under private law take on public or eligible tasks, this regularly involves subsidies from the public sector. With regard to VAT, the question to be answered is whether a subsidy is granted for a specific service and/or the provision of a service. In this case, one speaks of "non-genuine" grants.
We are happy to assist you in classifying a grant and its contractual basis under private law - whether in advance or downstream in the context of a dispute with the tax authorities - so that you can act on a financially secure basis.
