- The Philippine Court of Tax Appeals ruled on a case regarding unutilized input VAT refunds for zero-rated sales.
- Only part of the taxpayer’s zero-rated sales was properly substantiated due to documentation issues.
- Much of the input VAT claimed was invalid because of altered, out-of-period, or noncompliant receipts.
- After allocation and offsetting, no excess input VAT remained.
- The taxpayer was not entitled to a refund.
