Appeal to 35-year-old agreements does not inspire confidence that VAT is deductible

  • Additional VAT Assessment Upheld: The District Court of The Hague confirmed that the additional VAT assessment for the years 2018-2022 was justified and correctly calculated, rejecting X’s claims for a VAT refund.
  • Insufficient Grounds for Deduction: X’s argument for deductibility based on agreements purportedly made 35 years ago was deemed unconvincing, as there was no credible evidence to support these claims.
  • Lack of Protected Expectations: The court ruled that reliance on the principle of legitimate expectations was invalid, as mere monitoring of past reports does not establish a legal basis for trust, and no additional circumstances were provided to support X’s case.
