- X Inc. organized a streamer convention in the Netherlands in 2022, featuring various performances and activities.
- The main legal issue was whether access to the event qualified for the reduced VAT rate.
- The court ruled that, by law, the reduced VAT rate does not apply, as the event is broader than just music or theatrical performances.
- However, based on the principle of legitimate expectation and the wording of an official decree, X Inc. can apply the reduced VAT rate.
- The appeal by X Inc. was upheld.
