Danish Court: VAT Liability on Group Advance Invoices Arises Only Upon Service Performance

  • Danish court ruled that VAT liability and deduction rights arise when services are performed, not when advance invoices are issued.
  • Taxpayers failed to prove VAT liability was triggered by advance invoicing.
  • Invoices did not meet formal requirements, increasing the burden of proof for taxpayers.
  • VAT liability for services only arises upon performance unless advance invoices clearly specify the nature and timing of future services.
