                Nuno de Oliveira Garcia clarifies issues regarding the issuance of IMI settlement notes | CNN
Nuno de Oliveira Garcia, partner and head of Tax, advises that, given the delay in the arrival of settlement notices at people’s homes this year, the references provided on the Finance Portal should be used, as it is not possible to know ‘when the letter will arrive’, in a CNN Portugal article.
Technical constraints following the ‘blackout’ on 29 April delayed the sending of IMI settlement notices, with the Government deciding to extend the payment deadline for this tax (for the first instalment or the single instalment for amounts up to €100) until the end of June, i.e. for one month longer than usual.
In this context, Nuno de Oliveira Garcia’s advice is that people sign up to Via CTT, so that they receive notifications and settlement notices electronically only.

            Danish cases in Spain: Beneficial owner requirement not applicable to the non-resident income tax exemption of interest payments to EU residents        
        
            Contrary to the stance taken by the Audiencia Nacional, the Valencia High Court of Justice takes the view that the exemption of interest payments to European Union residents should be applied in accordance with the terms that the national legislature has chosen to keep, without the additional requirements of Directive 2003/49/EC. If abusive practices are found to exist, tax regularisation must be carried out by resorting to one of the general anti-abuse clauses provided for in the Taxation Act.

            The Court of Justice upholds the annulment of the European Commission's third decision on the scheme for the tax amortisation of financial goodwill        
        
            La Sentencia del Tribunal de Justicia de 26 de junio del 2025 declara que las dos primeras decisiones de la Comisión Europea sobre la incompatibilidad con las normas sobre ayudas estatales del régimen de amortización fiscal del fondo de comercio financiero generaron confianza legítima sobre el alcance y límites de la obligación de recuperación, incluyendo dentro de su alcance las adquisiciones directas e indirectas de participaciones en empresas extranjeras. Por tanto, no cabe la recuperación retroactiva de las ayudas relacionadas con adquisiciones indirectas cubiertas por las dos primeras decisiones, por lo que debe procederse a su devolución junto con los intereses de demora.

            CJEU clarifies conditions under which EU law may prohibit national tax exemptions        
        
            For the Grand Chamber of the CJEU, a tax exemption based on objective and non-discriminatory criteria and integrated into the logic of the legal system which it accompanies is inherent in the ‘normal’ tax regime and does not, in principle, confer a selective advantage. In such cases, the conditions for granting the exemption are neutral from the point of view of competition, as the fact that some undertakings satisfy those conditions, while others do not, is not relevant in the light of the rules on State aid.

            Tax treatment of exemptions under the Public Service of Justice (Efficiency Measures) Act        
        
            Here follows a critical analysis of the changes made by the Public Service of Justice (Efficiency Measures) Act to the regulation of three of the exemptions provided for in Article 7 of the Personal Income Tax Act that seek to favour the implementation and promotion of non-court appropriate dispute resolution procedures.

            Consequences of incorporating a shareholders’ agreement into an ancillary obligation attached to company shares        
        
            This paper intends to highlight the consequences that attaching to company shares an ancillary obligation consisting of compliance with a shareholders' agreement has (and does not have), consequences that derive from the integration of the agreement into the corporate organisation.

            Questionable constitutionality of Royal Decree-law approving a temporary energy levy previously rejected by the Spanish Parliament        
        
            By way of Royal Decree-law 10/2024 of 23 December for the establishment of a temporary energy levy during 2025, the Spanish government has ‘reintroduced’ a levy whose extension had just been rejected by Parliament, an unprecedented and dubiously constitutional move.
