Advocate-General (AG) Pitruzzella of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) issued his opinion on 3 March 2022 determining that a holding company may not recover input VAT incurred on a taxable supply of services contributed free of charge to its subsidiaries and used for VAT-exempt activities of the subsidiaries (Finanzamt R v W-GmbH). The CJEU still must issue its decision in the case.
