VAT Fraud: Tax Authorities, Not Taxpayers, Must Prove It

  • The European Court of Justice has ruled that taxpayers cannot be expected to conduct a comprehensive verification of their suppliers in order to claim VAT deductions.
  • Taxpayers do not have the obligation or tools to conduct checks on their suppliers’ tax compliance, as this is the responsibility of the tax authorities.
  • Taxpayers only need to take reasonable verification measures in order to claim VAT deductions.
