- A Dutch company sold sunscreen products and paid VAT at the standard 21% rate for May 2023, but argued the reduced VAT rate should apply.
- The company claimed sunscreen qualifies as a medicine under a 2016 Supreme Court ruling.
- It also argued that the requirement for a marketing authorization since 1 January 2018 should not matter.
- The case concerns whether sunscreen can still receive the reduced VAT rate without a marketing authorization.
