The European Commission has published a proposal for a Council Directive amending Directive 2006/112/EC as regards the extension of the application period of the optional reverse charge mechanism in relation to supplies of certain goods and services susceptible to fraud and of the Quick Reaction Mechanism against VAT fraud. In particular, the proposal would prolong:
- the possibility for Member States to apply the reverse charge mechanism to combat existing fraud in supplies of goods and services included in Article 199a of the VAT Directive; and
- the possibility to use the Quick Reaction Mechanism (QRM), as set out in Article 199b of the VAT Directive, to combat fraud via the application of the reverse charge mechanism in very specific cases.
