Judicial fee exemption does not apply to consumer association lawsuits

A consumer association has enquired whether it is entitled to an objective or subjective exemption from the fee for the exercise of judicial authority. The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) has ruled that the exemption does not apply, as the cases do not involve specific proceedings for the protection of fundamental rights, nor does the association benefit from legal aid.

How it affects those involved
