Intra-Community acquisitions of non-reusable plastic packaging are subject to tax

A canning company has enquired whether the destruction of plastic packaging acquired through intra-Community transactions allows for a tax exemption. The DGT clarifies that an exemption only applies if destruction occurs due to extraordinary circumstances before the packaging has fulfilled its function, rather than as a result of its natural life cycle.

In 6 key points

How it affects those involved
