Construction services

Generally, the reduced rate of Value-Added Tax (VAT) applies to construction services. The supply of construction services, in relation to immovable goods, includes:

  • construction, extension, alteration, and demolition services
  • and
  • building, electrical, plumbing, plastering, heating, painting, roofing, flooring and other construction related services.

There are special rules for principal contractors and subcontractors providing construction services and how they account for VAT.
