- The ECJ issued a preliminary ruling on the VAT treatment of tooling in intra-Community supplies (Case C-234/24).
- A Slovakian company sought a refund of Bulgarian VAT paid on tooling used for manufacturing vehicle parts.
- Bulgarian tax authorities denied the refund, claiming the supply was part of an exempt intra-Community supply.
- The ECJ ruled that VAT refunds cannot be refused for equipment supplies to taxable persons in another EU country, unless the supply is part of a single, indivisible economic supply or is ancillary to a principal supply.
