- Recent judicial decisions have adopted a restrictive interpretation of the “symmetric corrections” mechanism in VAT law, limiting taxpayer rights.
- Courts have rejected the application of this mechanism even when tax payment was only delayed, not evaded, and already regularized.
- Article 81 of Law 11.683 aims to ensure fiscal neutrality by allowing automatic compensation for timing errors or excess payments, preventing unjust enrichment of the tax authority.
- The refusal to apply symmetric corrections results in taxpayers facing interest charges on already paid taxes and issues with fiscal credits, despite no loss to the treasury.
