Judgment of the Court (Tenth Chamber) of 11 December 2025 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Nejvyšší správní soud – Czech Republic) – Česká síť s. r. o. v Odvolací finanční ředitelství


(Case C-796/23,
                (1)
Česká síť (Partners in a ‘Partnership’))

(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Taxation - Common system of value added tax (VAT) - Directive 2006/112/EC - Article 9(1) - Concept of ‘taxable person’ - Partners in a civil law partnership devoid of legal personality - Article 193 - Determination of the taxable person liable to pay VAT)

Language of the case: Czech

Referring court

Nejvyšší správní soud

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Česká síť s. r. o.

Defendant: Odvolací finanční ředitelství

Operative part of the judgment

Article 9(1) and Article 193 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax, as amended by Council Directive 2013/43/EU of 22 July 2013,
must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which provides that one of the partners in a civil law partnership devoid of legal personality separate from that of its partners and providing taxable services – referred to as the ‘designated partner’ – is to be deemed to be the person liable to pay value added tax in respect of taxable services provided by the other partners in that partnership, even though those other partners have dealt with their end customers for the provision of those services, and that it is irrelevant in that regard that, in order to do so, those other partners have departed from the rules of civil law governing the representation of that partnership in relations with third parties by dealing with their end customers in their own name.

1.


The first indent of Article 3(1)(a) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products, as amended by Regulation (EU) No 334/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2014 and by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1819 of 8 August 2019,
must be interpreted as meaning that, for a product to fall within the concept of ‘biocidal product’, as defined in that provision, that product does not necessarily have to be intended for use exclusively or primarily as a biocide, as such use may also be incidental to other intended uses.










2.


Article 2(1) and (2) of Regulation No 528/2012, as amended by Regulation No 334/2014 and by Delegated Regulation 2019/1819, read in conjunction with Product-type 4 of Main group 1 in Annex V to that regulation,
must be interpreted as meaning that a biocidal product which is intended for cleaning and disinfecting foodstuffs does not fall within the scope of that regulation.
