Value-Added Tax Audit as an Instrument of Preventive Tax Supervision

  • The Fiscal Court Nuremberg addressed the legality of a VAT audit under Section 27b UStG and confirmed the wide investigative powers of the tax authorities in preventive VAT supervision.
  • The case concerned whether a taxpayer can still seek judicial review of a VAT audit after it has already been completed.
  • The court also considered whether legal protection remains necessary if the disputed input VAT deduction is later fully allowed in an amended assessment.
  • It further dealt with the procedural limits on expanding the lawsuit to income tax matters.
