2018

This article deals with the decision taken by the Court of Justice of the European Union in X (Case C-283/15), on 9 February 2017. In general terms, the Court followed the Opinion of Advocate General Wathelet of 7 September 2016. The case concerned tax legislation permitting the deduction of "negative income" relating to a dwelling. The issue was whether the fundamental freedoms must be interpreted as precluding a Member State from refusing the benefit of that deduction in respect of a self-employed non-resident in circumstances in which that person receives 60% of his total income within that Member State, and 40% within a non-Member State. Therefore, he does not receive income that enable…

OS ECJ-TF 1/2019 on the ECJ Decision of 31 May 2018 in Hornbach-Baumarkt (Case C-382/16) Concerning the Application of Transfer Pricing Rules to Tran…

2019

This article is focused on the Court's decision in Hornbach-Baumarkt (Case C-382/16) (Hornbach) which is an important clarification of the conditional compatibility of arm's length-based domestic transfer pricing legislation with the freedom of establishment. Hornbach follows and confirms the previous doctrine formulated in SGI (Case C-311/08). The decision did not follow Advocate General's approach, which would have denied comparability of domestic and cross-border situations in transfer pricing cases and, hence, prevent scrutiny of domestic transfer pricing legislation under the fundamental freedoms. The authors welcome the requirement that Member States have to grant taxpayers the opport…

BREVI NOTE SULL'ONERE DELLA PROVA NEL PROCESSO TRIBUTARIO

2019

La regola dell’onere della prova costituisce un pilastro fondamentale in ogni disciplina processuale. Essa si sviluppa in una molteplicita' di principi attraverso i quali il processo persegue la sua funzione, la ricerca della verita'. Nel processo tributario l’applicazione della regola dell’onere della prova non sempre appare ispirata al principio del giusto processo ed al contribuente a volte è richiesto di offrire una prova che va oltre le sue possibilita'.

A Strategic Management Approach to the Problems of EU taxation

2004

This paper adopts a strategic management approach (objectives, strategy, structure, control) to the study of the European Union's taxation problems. Union of States have some strengths vis-a-vis individual States. However, to ensure that all States benefit, they need constant redistribution. As opposed to fiscal problems of unitary states, Unions of States have additional problems related to their differentiated organizational form, and hence they need integrating control mechanisms. This paper studies the EU taxation in view of the above notions common to the literature on fiscal federalism. We find that a strategic management approach can be applied to highlight the problems of taxation i…
