vAT 6%

AC

Question

My girlfriend is going to renovate her house (which is more than 10 years old). The building/environmental permit is okay and the plans from the architect are finalised. She wants to purchase the materials at 6% vAT. As a self-employed person in secondary occupation in construction, can I make these purchases and invoice her for them? I have read some information on the website (dexxter.be/een-rennovatie-aan-6-btw/), but this has not clarified the matter here for me.

If you are doing the work for her, you can reclaim the vAT on the building materials. I believe that the 6% vAT rate only applies to the renovation, not to the sale of building materials alone. You will therefore have to charge for the renovation, for example by offering a friend's rate or a generous discount.

Kind regards,
Louise
