- The omission of a VAT declaration does not automatically compromise the right to a VAT refund.
- If the taxpayer can document the existence of the VAT credit, it cannot be denied.
- This principle has been confirmed by the Court of Cassation (ruling no. 8979, April 9, 2026).
- The need to resubmit a refund request, as previously required by administrative practice, is no longer valid.
- Denying refunds solely due to late or omitted declarations contradicts established legal principles and administrative efficiency.
