Operative part of the judgment
1. |
Article 17(2)(g) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax, as amended by Council Directive 2008/8/EC of 12 February 2008, must be interpreted as meaning that the transfer, by a taxable person, of goods from a Member State to the Member State of refund, for the purposes of the supply by that taxable person of services for the hiring out of those goods in the latter Member State, shall not be treated as an intra-community supply where the use of those goods for the purposes of such a supply is temporary and they have been dispatched or transported from the Member State in which that taxable person is established. |
2. |
The provisions of Council Directive 2008/9/EC of 12 February 2008 laying down detailed rules for the refund of value added tax, provided for in Directive 2006/112/EC, to taxable persons not established in the Member State of refund but established in another Member State, must be interpreted as precluding a Member State from denying the right to a refund of value added tax to a taxable person established in the territory of another Member State on the sole ground that that taxable person is or should have been identified for value added tax purposes in the Member State of refund. |
