- The Philippine Court of Tax Appeals ruled that a VAT-registered construction consortium was not entitled to a full refund of unutilized input VAT on zero-rated sales to a PEZA-registered entity. The court upheld the partial denial by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue due to insufficient supporting documentation. It clarified that sales to PEZA-registered entities are not automatically zero-rated; the taxpayer must prove the goods or services were consumed or rendered within the ECOZONE, which the taxpayer failed to do.
