Operative part of the judgment
|
1. |
Article 314 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 margin scheme is not applicable to supplies of goods such as spare parts for motor vehicles, which the taxable dealer himself imported into the European Union under the normal value-added tax scheme. |
|
2. |
The first subparagraph of Article 320(1) and Article 320(2) of Directive 2006/112 must be interpreted as meaning that they preclude a national provision which provides for the deferral, until the subsequent supply under the normal value added tax scheme, of the right of the taxable dealer to deduct value added tax paid on importation of goods other than works of art, collectors’ items or antiques. |
|
3. |
Article 314, the first subparagraph of Article 320(1) and Article 320(2) of Directive 2006/112 have direct effect which authorises an individual to rely on them before a national court for the purposes of having national legislation which is incompatible with those provisions disapplied. |
