Starting 2024, CZ has just one low rate 12%

[spaze]

Note: merge in 2024 Note 2: the change has to be signed by the president yet, I'll update the PR once that's done signed see below

Source for example here

"The basic VAT rate will remain at 21 percent. The reduced rate will be 12 percent (so far we have two reduced rates: 10 and 15 percent). There will be zero tax on books."

Originally: "Základní sazba DPH zůstane 21 procent. Snížená sazba bude nově 12 procent (dosud máme dvě snížené sazby: 10 a 15 procent). Na knihy bude nově nulová daň." https://www.penize.cz/dph/442212-zmeny-dph-prehledne-kompletni-seznam

Another source: "The consolidation package introduces only two VAT rates, namely 12 and 21 percent." Originally: "Konsolidační balíček zavádí pouze dvě sazby DPH, a to 12 a 21 procent." https://www.e15.cz/konsolidacni-balicek-vlady-2023-obsah

The change has been signed earlier today, sources

• the president himself, https://twitter.com/prezidentpavel/status/1727240051493401075
• https://www.irozhlas.cz/zpravy-domov/konsolidacni-balicek-petr-pavel-podpis_2311220929_cen

Now the change needs to be published as a law which is a formality only.

Thanks for following up on this @spaze 👍

And just for the record, today the rate change has been published as a law (or what's the correct process term) see (in Czech here) https://www.psp.cz/sqw/sbirka.sqw?O=9&T=488 and the particular change is described in the PDF on page 88. But the PDF is linked as a http:// URL so Chrome will not download it from https:// page unless you devtools the link to https:// because of course gov sites can't get their sh!t together.
