In a case concerning VAT for services supplied electronically by a German GmbH through an app store operated by an Irish company, the Supreme Tax Court held that the place of supply of such services to the customers (non-taxable persons) was in Ireland and - pending further facts still to be ascertained by the lower tax court in a second hearing - no German VAT arises.
The Supreme Tax Court has confirmed that an insurance agent may provide for future policy service costs as contractually required, but the estimates must be conservative.
