This study examines the application of VAT to the financial sectors and the implications of exempting financial services from VAT. An analysis of VAT collection from financial services and the consequences of VAT exemption from theoretical and practical points of view was conducted.

VAT exemption for financial services creates some distortions for banks and the real economy. Based on the results of the study, a conclusion was made on the application of VAT to financial services
