Nuno de Oliveira Garcia clarifies issues regarding the issuance of IMI settlement notes | CNN
2 of June, 2025
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.

Non-resident taxpayers may benefit from the wealth tax liability cap
All taxpayers subject to wealth tax, both residents and non-residents, are in a comparable situation and must therefore be able to apply the combined cap of Article 31(1) LIP, the existence of a real or personal obligation being irrelevant for the purposes of the comparability analysis, since the determining factor is the nature and purpose of this tax device, as well as its content.

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.
