Amendments in VAT on Psychotherapy, Counselling and Dental professions
An amendment has been carried out through Legal Notice 228 of 2024, with regards to the exemption provided for in Item 11 of Part two of the Fifth Schedule of the Malta VAT Act. This legal notice has amended the application of the exemption without credit with regards to Health and Welfare.
The legal notice has defined the psychotherapy and counselling professions as medical professions in accordance with Article 132(1)(c) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC, which therefore benefit from the exemption without credit status.
Additionally, the legal notice now allows for the application of the exemption without credit to dental technicians in their professional capacity and to the supply of dental prostheses by dentists and dental technicians.
