ECJ – VAT group: Much ado about (in the end) nothing? Controlling company as taxable person – Intra-group supplies taxable?

Long awaited, now they are here: The ECJ judgments regarding the VAT group. In summary, it remains the case that the controlling company is the taxable person for the group. In this respect, German law does not violate EU law. However, the ECJ’s position on the taxability of supplies between group members remains unclear. In addition, the ECJ again shows that the parent company’s right to intervene in the activities of the subsidiary cannot be seen as mandatory in order for the establishment of a VAT group. The issue of supplies carried out free of charge, which was also dealt with by the ECJ, will be covered shortly in an upcoming newsletter.
