ECJ Rules Hungarian Tax Authorities Cannot Deny VAT Deduction Solely for Unreliable Invoices

  • The ECJ issued a preliminary ruling on Hungarian input VAT deduction rules in Case No. T-363/25.
  • A Hungarian company’s VAT deduction was denied by tax authorities, claiming the invoice was fictitious.
  • The ECJ ruled that VAT deduction cannot be denied solely due to unreliable invoices or incorrect parties if goods were supplied, used for taxable activities, and VAT obligations were met.
  • The ruling interprets Directive 2006/112/EC to protect taxpayers when there is no loss to the state budget.
