31 October 2024

From 1 January 2025, the standard Value Added Tax (VAT) rate in Slovakia will increase from 20% to 23%.

In addition to the standard rate rise, the reduced VAT rate of 10% will be abolished and a new reduced rate of 19% will apply. There will be no change to the super reduced rate of 5%.

Finally, the Slovakian government also confirmed that the VAT rates will change from:

  • 10% to 5% on basic foodstuffs, medicines and medical devices, accommodation, books and printed materials, fitness centres, sports events and catering services consisting of food preparation.
  • 20% to 19% on other foodstuffs other than basic foods and domestic electricity.
