Italian Tax Court Disregards VAT Penalties for “Dormant” Companies in Landmark Ruling

  • The Italian tax court disregarded VAT penalties on “dormant” companies following a ruling by the European Court of Justice.
  • This is the first national decision to apply the EU court’s interpretation.
  • Certain companies in Italy are considered “non-operational” if they do not meet specific thresholds for revenue, inventory increases, and income.
  • The decision allows affected taxpayers to potentially recover lost credits through an amended tax return.
  • Filing an integrative tax return is the preferred approach to assert the lost credit.
