The Court of Justice addressed the question whether a tax authority can rebut company’s right to apply a 0% VAT rate on the transaction of goods' supply where the goods are exported to a destination outside the territory of the EU, considering that there had been no supply because, after the goods were exported, the tax authorities found that the person acquiring those goods was not the person stated on the supplier's VAT invoice but another entity which has not been identified.

EU regulations do not have a retroactive effect, but the measures they repeal do
2024-11-10

Do EU rules have a retroactive effect? There is no clear answer to this question. It has been the subject of a number of rulings by the Court of Justice of the EU in relation to specific acts and situations. This article reviews one of the recent CJEU's judgments on this issue. It concerns the retroactive application of anti-dumping duties when they have already been repealed.

EU sanctions system and the new Customs Code
2024-10-27

The topic of sanctions is of particular importance in EU Customs Law, as sanctions are relevant tools for ensuring the proper enforcement of the latter in EU Member States. In this regard, the Proposal of 17 May 2023 for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Union Customs Code and the European Union Customs Authority, and repealing Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, highlights the negative effects of the lack of harmonization in terms of customs sanctions. It is emphasized therein that customs penalties vary greatly across Member States and are subject to evolution over time; in addition, the significant divergences between Member States in the application of sanctions against breaches of customs legislation can lead to a distortion of competition, loopholes and “customs shopping”.

The EU autonomous suspensions and quotas scheme: a glimpse behind the curtain of (an esoteric) Brussels trade committee
2024-08-07

Article 28 of the Treaty of Rome provides for the temporary suspension of duties under the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) on imports of raw materials and components for further processing. This is possible where it is established that the EU-based companies are unable to obtain supplies of the product or suitable substitutes. This article aims to describe the process for successfully applying for an autonomous suspension or quota from the initial completion of the prescribed form to the discussions in the Committee rooms in the European Commission in Brussels.

Car wars: the EU announced additional tariffs on imports of Chinese battery electric vehicles
2024-06-20

China is facing increasing pressure over exports of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) as a number of countries contemplate applying measures to protect domestic markets from what they consider to be unfair and market-distorting subsidisation by the Chinese government. On 12 June 2024, the European Commission pre-disclosed new tariffs as a result of an anti-subsidy investigation launched towards the end of 2023. This follows 100% applied on Chinese BEVs introduced by the US in May 2024 and a 40% tariff on conventional and hybrid vehicle imports from China imposed by Türkiye earlier in June.
