Type: Judgment

Authority: European Authorities: Euopean Union' Court of Justice

Date: 06/18/2015

Subject: According to the Court, Article 39(2) EC does not preclude a Member State, for the purposes of charging income tax on a non-resident worker who has pursued his occupational activity in that Member State during part of the year, from refusing to grant that worker a tax advantage which takes account of his personal and family circumstances, on the basis that, although he received, in that Member State, all or almost all his income from that period, that income does not form the major part of his taxable income for the entire year in question. The fact that that worker left to pursue his occupational activity in a non-member State and not in another EU Member State does not affect that interpretation

Parties: Kieback
