If the effective centre of management of a company, firm, association or legal person is transferred from a Member State which has abolished capital duty before its formation to another Member State which charges capital duty at that time, is that company, firm, association or legal person precluded from being classified as a capital company ‘for the purposes of charging capital duty’ within the meaning of Article 4(1)(g) of Directive 69/335/EEC (1) of 17 July 1969 as amended by Directive 85/303/EEC (2) of 10 June 1985 and Article 4(3)(b) of Directive 69/335/EEC of 17 July 1969 as amended by Directive 85/303/EEC of 10 June 1985 by the fact that the first mentioned Member State has waived the charging of capital duty by repealing the relevant national legal basis for that duty? |
