The CJEU ruled that the VAT tax base for in-kind contributions in exchange for shares is the issue value of the shares, not the nominal value. The case involved a Polish real estate company that acquired property and exchanged it for shares, using the issue value as payment. The dispute arose when the tax authority challenged this method, leading to a cassation appeal. The CJEU supported the company’s position, stating that the issue value of the shares should determine the tax base, not the nominal value.
