Purchasing from a developer (new/first sale property)

If purchasing directly from a developer/first sale, VAT at 19% applies instead of transfer fees. A reduced VAT rate of 5% may apply to your first 130 m² of primary residence (subject to conditions).

Both buyer and seller are VAT-registered on this transaction

If both parties are VAT-registered and the property qualifies, a reverse-charge mechanism may apply. Consult a tax advisor.
