- A Hungarian court has asked the CJEU for guidance in Wagner Sport Signage (Case C-407/26) about a VAT refund dispute.
- The court asks whether a national practice is compatible with the EU Charter right to good administration and the principles of fiscal neutrality, effectiveness, and proportionality.
- It also asks whether missing mandatory data in a VAT refund application can be supplied later as additional information, either by the taxpayer or via the authority in the Member State of establishment.
- If not, the court asks whether a refund can still be granted for the part of the application that was correctly completed, despite formal omissions in other required data.
