(Case C-105/22, (1) Dyrektor Izby Administracji Skarbowej w Warszawie (Taxation of exported second hand vehicles))
(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Free movement of goods - Tax provisions - Article 110 TFEU - Excise duty - Export of a vehicle registered in a Member State to a country of the European Economic Area (EEA) - Refusal to reimburse the excise duty paid in respect of that vehicle up to an amount proportionate to the duration of its use in the territory of the Member State of registration - Principle that excise duty is a single-stage tax and principle of proportionality)

Referring court

Naczelny Sąd Administracyjny

Parties to the main proceedings


Appellant: P.M.

Respondent: Dyrektor Izby Administracji Skarbowej w Warszawie

Operative part of the judgment

Primary EU law, in particular the first paragraph of Article 110 TFEU, and the principle that excise duty is a single-stage tax and the principle of proportionality, must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation which does not provide, when a passenger car registered in the Member State concerned is exported, for reimbursement of the excise duty paid in respect of that vehicle in that Member State up to an amount which is proportionate to the duration of the use of that vehicle in the territory of that State.
