Language of the case: Polish
Referring court
Wojewódzki Sąd Administracyjny we Wrocławiu
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: Uwe Rüffler
Defendant: Dyrektor Izby Skarbowej we Wrocławiu Ośrodek Zamiejscowy w Wałbrzychu
Re:
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Wojewódzi Sąd Administracyjny we Wrocławiu (Poland) — Interpretation of the first paragraph of Article 12 EC and of Article 39(1) and (2) EC — National legislation on income tax limiting the right to deduct health insurance contributions from that tax to contributions paid solely in the Member State concerned
Operative part of the judgment
Article 18(1) EC precludes legislation of a Member State which makes the granting of a right to a reduction of income tax by the amount of health insurance contributions paid conditional on payment of those contributions in that Member State on the basis of national law and results in the refusal to grant such a tax advantage where the contributions liable to be deducted from the amount of income tax due in that Member State have been paid under the compulsory health insurance scheme of another Member State.
