Is import VAT for goods which have been reexported under customs supervision as non-Community goods for which, however, a customs debt is incurred due to a breach of obligation under Article 204 of the Customs Code (1) — in this case: failure to discharge in due time the external Community transit procedure by presentation at the competent customs office before the introduction into the third country — to be considered to be not legally owed within the meaning of Article 236(1) of the Customs Code in conjunction with the provisions of Directive 2006/112/EC, (2) at least where the person used as the debtor is the person on whom the breached obligation was incumbent without him being entitled to dispose of the goods?
