Taxation significantly affects demand for construction services, especially for energy renovation projects aligned with the EU’s green objectives.
EBC strongly advocates for reduced VAT rates on construction work, particularly in energy renovation, to make these projects more accessible and economically viable. EBC also promotes reducing administrative burdens associated with tax compliance for SMEs, pushing for streamlined processes to ensure a level playing field across enterprises.
EBC supports the Omnibus Simplification Package to simplify sustainability reporting for construction SMEs, ensuring it doesn't burden them with excessive costs or complex requirements.
