- The Court of Appeal in The Hague has ruled that the deduction of VAT has been correctly corrected.
- The zero rate has been incorrectly applied as it is not credible that the goods have left the Netherlands.
- The penalty has been correctly imposed.
- The court agrees with the lower court’s decision to correct the deduction of VAT for invoices from BV 2.
- The court finds that the taxpayer did not have the funds to pay BV 2 and could not expect payment from GmbH 1.
- The court does not find any evidence that the taxpayer intended to pay the invoices from BV 2 or reimburse GmbH 3 for the advanced amounts.
- The court states that the invoice to GmbH 1 was not uncollectible in the relevant period.
- The court concludes that a refund under article 29, paragraph 1, of the VAT Act is not possible for the invoice to GmbH 1 in the relevant period.
