Electricity supplies to non-established resellers are not subject to VAT if they have no base or establishment in Spain

The DGT ruled that if the recipients are resellers without a registered office, permanent establishment, or domicile in Spanish territory, the supplies are not considered to have taken place in Spain and are therefore not subject to the tax.
