Defendant: Skatteministeriet
Re:
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Højesteret — Interpretation of Art. 8(1)(c) of Council Directive 92/81/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the harmonisation of the structures of excise duties on mineral oils (OJ 1992 L 316, p. 12) — Exemption for mineral oils used as fuel for the purposes of navigation — Concept of ‘for the purposes of navigation’ — Mineral oils used as fuel for an excavator which is affixed to a vessel but having its own separate motor and fuel tank and thus operating independently of the vessel’s propulsion motor.
Operative part of the judgment
Article 8(1)(c) of Council Directive 92/81/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the harmonisation of the structures of excise duties on mineral oils, as amended by Council Directive 94/74/EC of 22 December 1994, must be interpreted as meaning that mineral oils supplied for use in an excavator which is affixed to a vessel but which, because it has its own separate motor and fuel tank, operates independently of the vessel’s propulsion engine, are not exempt from excise duties.
