In its judgment of 12 November 2020 in the ‘Sonaecom’ case (C 42/19), the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled that a company can deduct VAT on abort costs, provided the company intended to render VAT taxed services to the envisaged target. The ECJ thereby confirmed the line it set out in previous rulings and provided further guidance on the conditions for deduction of VAT on abort costs, including circumstances under which VAT deduction was not allowed.
