- The CJEU Advocate General in Case C-167/26 RX on input VAT deduction timing recommends that the Court not follow the General Court’s earlier view.
- The case concerns whether EU VAT rules allow a national rule requiring a taxable person to claim input VAT deduction in a return for a specific period.
- The Advocate General says the General Court’s approach would undermine the unity and coherence of EU law.
- The opinion refers to Articles 167, 168(a) and 178(a) of the VAT Directive, along with the principles of VAT neutrality and proportionality.
