In the last few years, the European Commission has found several discrepancies in the way the EU VAT Directive 2006/112/EC has been implemented at the national level, referring some Member States to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in relation to the VAT exemptions granted to vessels not sailing only on the high seas, even if used for commercial purposes. The aim of this article is to analyse the single parts of the definition of ‘Vessels used for navigation on the high seas’ according to the EU VAT Directive, and particularly so in the context of the applicability of the exemption under Article 148(a), (c) and (d).

Abstract
In the last few years, the European Commission has found several discrepancies in the way the EU VAT Directive 2006/112/EC has been implemented at the national level, referring some Member States to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in relation to the VAT exemptions granted to vessels not sailing only on the high seas, even if used for commercial purposes. The aim of this article is to analyse the single parts of the definition of ‘Vessels used for navigation on the high seas’ according to the EU VAT Directive, and particularly so in the context of the applicability of the exemption under Article 148(a), (c) and (d).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
