he proposed delay of one year (meaning that the derogation would come into effect on 1st January 2026) has not been mentioned in the decision.
Should Germany wish to extend the derogation period, it will be required to produce a report detailing how these measures have supported in combatting fraud, as well as simplifying tax collection.
