Variability of VAT rates; presumptions and evidence
Original language description
Value added tax is harmonized; tax collection mechanism, tax base, the functioning principle, tax rates issues, everything is regulated by Directives, issued by the European Commission, where the most relevant is the Directive 2006/112/ES which regulatesminimum rates, not rate brackets, so the differences in tax rates between Member States still persist. This paper focuses on the differences in standard and reduced VAT rates applied in Member States and the paper will examine variability in VAT rates since the late 70 s until present for Member States EU 6, EU 15 and EU 27. Because of tax harmonization and international trade a decrease in variability can be expected. Nevertheless, EU 27 still includes countries with historical differences in consumption taxes concerning tax rates; this implies, despite the decrease in variation, the coefficient will not approach a zero value and will be higher for EU 27 than for EU 6.
