- The ECJ’s Advocate General delivered an opinion in the “Stellantis Portugal” case on the VAT treatment of transfer pricing adjustments in intragroup transactions.
- The case highlights that there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution for VAT on transfer pricing adjustments; each case requires individual assessment.
- The Advocate General distinguished between scenarios: separate services (taxable), unilateral tax authority adjustments (not relevant for VAT), and contractual price adjustments (case-specific).
- The opinion underscores the need for businesses to anticipate VAT implications in intragroup activities and profit adjustments.
