Information:
Austrian Value Added Tax (VAT)
Conference rates include 10% VAT. Individuals registering as Corporate delegates (Entrepreneurs under Austrian Tax Law) are not required to pay VAT and registration rates do not include VAT. Please see below:
The VAT liability for registration fees for entrepreneurs is transferred to the registrant (reverse charge). Consequently in these cases the registration fee is charged without VAT. Entrepreneurs have to prove their status as being a taxable individual or entity for VAT purposes at the beginning of the conference at the latest either by presenting their VAT-identification number or by submission of a certificate of registration as taxable person (entrepreneur) issued by their tax office. If the entrepreneurship cannot be proved 10 % VAT has to be charged.
Delegates who are entrepreneurs can reclaim input-VAT with the Austrian tax authorities. ISCB will have to pay the charged VAT to the Austrian tax office but will not be involved in any reclaim procedures. ISCB will not take responsibility for the repayment through the Austrian tax authorities.
