On 3 March 2020, the European Court of Justice (CJEU) issued a decision in the Tesco case (C-323/18), ruling that the Hungarian special turnover tax in the store retail trade sector (“special tax”) does not violate the freedom of establishment under the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The state aid questions referred to the CJEU were determined to be inadmissible.
