- The ECJ issued a preliminary ruling on Finnish VAT rules for factoring services (Case C-232/24).
- Factoring commissions and arrangement fees charged by factors are considered taxable services under EU VAT law.
- These fees are subject to VAT regardless of whether the debts are transferred or only serve as security.
- Factoring services are treated as a single, indivisible debt collection service for VAT purposes.
