En el trabajo se analiza la interpretación efectuada por el Tribunal Constitucional del art. 6 de la LOFCA, en cuanto prohibición de doble imposición resultante de la duplicidad de hechos imponibles. En primer lugar, se revisa la extensión por el Tribunal Constitucional del concepto de «hecho imponible» a hechosque no obligan a realizar el pago de un tributo, por ser calificados legalmente como hechos exentos, o por contemplar la ley la aplicación de un tipo cero de gravamen. En segundo lugar, se efectuarán algunas consideraciones críticas a la contraposición realizada por el Tribunal Constitucional entre el hecho imponible erróneamente definido por la ley, y el verdadero hecho imponible del tributo. En tercer lugar, también es objeto de análisis la respuesta ofrecida por el Tribunal Constitucional a la cuestión acerca de cuándo se puede decir que existe una duplicidad de hechos imponibles. Finalmente, en cuarto lugar, se criticará que el Tribunal Constitucional haya interpretado la prohibición de doble imposición expresada por el art. 6 de la LOFCA al margen de las exigencias de la prohibición de confiscatoriedad contemplada en el art. 31.1 de la Constitución española.
This essay analyzes the interpretation made by the Constitutional Court of art. 6 of the LOFCA, as a prohibition of double taxation resulting from the duplication of taxable events. First, the extension by the Constitutional Court of the concept of “taxable event” to events that do not require payment of a tax is reviewed, as they are legally qualified as exempt events, or by law contemplating the application of a zero tax rate. Secondly, some critical considerations will be made to the opposition made by the Constitutional Court between the taxable event erroneously defined by law, and the true taxable event. Thirdly, the answer offered by the Constitutional Court to the question about when it can be said that there is a duplicity of taxable events is also the subject of analysis. Finally, it will be criticized that the Constitutional Court has not interpreted the prohibition of double taxation expressed by art. 6 of the LOFCA in accordance with the requirements of the prohibition of confiscatoriness contemplated in art. 31.1 of the Spanish Constitution.
