ECJ: VAT liability for member of the board of directors of a ...
In a request from Luxembourg for a preliminary ruling, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) was asked whether the member of the board of directors (MBD) of a Luxembourg public limited company pursues an economic activity which is carried out independently and thus subject to Value Added Tax. In previous cases this question was addressed only for a member of a supervisory board and a managing director and answered by the Court in the negative. In the current case the ECJ has reservations as to the independence of the service provided by the MBD.
