How to enter a purchase invoice without vAT

Question

I am VAT exempted and always get confused when I receive an invoice that does not mention VAT.

For example, I rent a room from a non-profit organisation and receive a monthly invoice for this. The invoice simply states the amount that the room cost (€60). No VAT…As a VAT-exempted person, shouldn’t I always have the 21% VAT on my purchase invoices? And if it is not stated, shouldn’t I file a special VAT return (and thus pay the VAT again)?

Or is it okay to simply enter an invoice without VAT and consider that amount to be the amount incl. VAT?

Hi LD,

That depends on whether that non-profit organisation is liable for VAT. If that is not the case, then they do not have to charge vAT and it will not be stated on your invoice. It is best to ask your supplier why they do not charge vAT.

Thank you!
