Questions referred
1. |
Is the rounding-off of VAT amounts governed solely by national law, or — particularly in view of the first and second paragraphs of Article 2 of the First Directive (1) and Article 11 A(1)(a) of the Sixth Directive and Article 22(3)(b), first sentence, (version as at 1 January 2004) and (5) of the Sixth Directive (2) — is it a matter for Community law? |

If the latter is the case, does it follow from the aforementioned provisions of the Directives that the Member States are required to permit rounding-down per article, even if different transactions are included in one invoice and/or one tax return? |
