VAT on art

BS

Question

Is the 6% vAT on the purchase of a painting deductible if the painting ends up in your office?

In exceptional cases, vAT deduction can be justified if you can demonstrate that the art is an essential part of your business operations, for example in the design of a hotel, restaurant, or specifically a waiting area where aesthetics are crucial to the customer experience.
