- The General Financial Directorate (GFD) disagrees with the EU General Court’s judgment allowing VAT deduction in the tax period when the taxable supply occurred, insisting it should only be allowed when the tax document is received.
- The CJEU ruled that a statutory obligation to acquire medical equipment does not alone grant the right to deduct VAT; the right arises if the equipment is necessary for safety or comfort in healthcare facilities.
- In the Aptiv Services Hungary case, the CJEU held that the right to deduct VAT arises only when the customer has the tax document, and deduction cannot be refused due to national time limits if the document was not previously available.
- The CJEU generally took a favorable approach to allowing healthcare institutions to exercise input VAT deduction under certain conditions.
