Legal Ruling: Transfer of Hazardous Waste for Disposal Not Considered a Sale, but a Service

  • BFH ruling from 18.4.2024 nr V R 7/22
  • Question: Is the transfer of hazardous waste for disposal a supply and leads to a barter-like transaction with cash payment?
  • Taking over hazardous waste for legally mandated disposal is a waste disposal service, not a barter-like transaction
  • No barter-like transaction, as there is no sale of the hazardous waste to the entrepreneur
  • Calculated price discount in favor of customers does not change the waste disposal service
