- Preliminary Ruling Request: On February 6, 2025, the Supreme Administrative Court referred a VAT-related question to the Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ) regarding the interpretation of Article 19 of Directive 112.
- Asset Transfer Clarification: The court seeks clarification on whether transferring a share of all assets free of charge to non-taxpayers, who will contribute these shares to a business partnership, constitutes a taxable asset transfer.
- Implications for Taxpayers: This ruling could have significant implications for how similar transactions are treated under VAT law, affecting both the partners involved and the broader interpretation of asset transfers in business contexts.
