Faculty of Law, Administration & Economics}, language={eng}, abstract={The public sector in Germany is subject to both income tax and value-added tax when its activities go beyond the area of public administration to the extent that they enter into competition with other providers.

The German Tax Amendment Act 2015 seeks to establish a new statutory basis for the VAT treatment of the public sector that is compliant with EU law.}, title={Taxation of the Public Sector in Germany – An Introduction}, type={text}, keywords={taxation, public sector, Germany}, }
