Operative part of the judgment
1. |
Article 185 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as meaning that the national tax authorities must require a taxable person to adjust the deduction of the value added tax initially made where, following the obtaining by that person of discounts on internal supplies of goods, those authorities consider that the deduction initially made was greater than that which that taxable person was entitled to make. |
2. |
Article 185 of Directive 2006/112 must be interpreted as meaning that a adjustment of a deduction of value added tax (VAT) initially made is required in respect of a taxable person established in a Member State, even where that taxable person’s supplier has ceased his activities in that Member State and that supplier can therefore no longer claim repayment of part of the VAT he has paid. |
