CJEU Confirms TP Adjustments as VAT-Applicable Services, Requires Supporting Documentation

    The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled that transfer pricing adjustments charged by a principal company to an operating company are considered services within the scope of VAT. The CJEU also stated that tax authorities can request additional evidence to verify that these services were supplied and used for the operating company’s taxable activities. The case involved Arcomet Towercranes, where the Romanian tax authorities challenged the VAT treatment of TP adjustments between Arcomet Belgium and Arcomet Romania. The CJEU confirmed that such adjustments are payments for services and fall under VAT, and that member states can require supporting documentation to establish a direct link between the purchase and the supply.
