The decision to reduce VAT in the short term is a great thing from the consumer's point of view. For companies, however, this changeover represents an effort that is more or less complex depending on the company.
With a period of just 6 months, the duration of this VAT reduction is also short. This is doubly annoying if your company has to devote a lot of resources to the changeover.
Practice vs. theory
At first, such a reduction sounds relatively simple. In the accounting and billing software, you simply switch from 19 to 16 - that's it.
However, it is only quite that simple for individual sales. With subscriptions, on the other hand, the point in time at which the service is deemed to have been provided is decisive. This can also apply retroactively if the invoice has already been issued. In this case, these invoices may have to be canceled and reissued correctly with two tax rates.
