Establissements publics de coopération intercommunale and syndicats mixtes composed exclusively of members eligible for the Fonds de compensation pour la taxe sur la valeur ajoutée benefit, in place of their owner members, from allocations from the Fonds de compensation pour la taxe sur la valeur ajoutée in respect of eligible expenditure pursuant to article L. 1615-1 incurred in the exercise of their powers.

By way of derogation, local authorities and their groupings benefit from allocations from the Value Added Tax Compensation Fund in respect of investment expenditure incurred on property that they do not own, provided that it concerns work to combat avalanches, landslides, floods, fires, as well as work to defend against the sea and work to prevent forest fires, which is of general interest or urgent in nature.

Territorial authorities and their groupings benefit, by way of derogation, from allocations from the Value Added Tax Compensation Fund in respect of assistance funds paid to the State for investment expenditure paid from 1 January 2021 that the latter carries out on its public road domain.

Only capital expenditure carried out under an agreement with the State or the territorial authority that owns the property specifying the equipment to be carried out, the technical programme for the work and the financial commitments of the parties are eligible for allocations from the fund.
Territorial authorities and their groupings also benefit from allocations from the Value Added Tax Compensation Fund in respect of investment expenditure carried out on the State’s public river estate, as part of the experiment provided for in article L. 3113-2 of the general code of public property.
