Circular 2203002 provides the interpretive framework for VAT on motor insurance, covering premiums, claims, and salvage. All vehicle insurance premiums and ancillary benefits are subject to the 15% standard rate. The circular distinguishes between third-party indemnity (not subject to VAT) and comprehensive insurance repairs. In comprehensive cases, the insurer is treated as the customer if it manages repairs directly, enabling input tax deduction. It also clarifies that transferring completely damaged vehicles (salvage) to an insurer is a taxable supply if the insured is VAT-registered. This document clarifies Article 29 Clause 7 of the Implementing Regulations.
