- On December 21, 2023, the CJEU issued a decision on the VAT status of independent directors in Luxembourg.
- The Court concluded that director fees do not fall within the scope of VAT if directors are not acting independently.
- As a result, director fees in such situations are no longer subject to VAT.
- This decision contradicts the position of the Luxembourg VAT authorities as stated in a 2016 Circular letter.
