Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: The Navigator Company SA, Navigator Pulp Figueira SA

Defendant: Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira

Operative part of the judgment

The principle of equivalence must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation, maintained pursuant to the second paragraph of Article 176 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax, and which establishes a total or partial exclusion of the right to deduct VAT paid in respect of certain motor vehicle expenses, travel and accommodation expenses and entertainment expenses as well as legal costs, even though such expenses are covered by a scheme which is allegedly more favourable, in terms of the deductibility of those expenses, in the context of a direct tax governed by national law.
