Los ordenamientos jurídicos de los Estados miembros de la Unión Europea han desarrollado un sistema de “onus probandi” a nivel tributario que se cimenta sobre una serie de normas en las que pareciera que los elementos procedimentales se erigen como fundamentales frente a aquellos materiales a través de los cuales se puede verificar una realidad tributaria. No obstante, el IVA, con las particularidades técnicas que lo caracterizan y su alto nivel de armonización a nivel europeo, presenta ciertos mecanismos dentro de los cuales, en determinados supuestos, los requisitos probatorios a nivel material tienden a prevalecer sobre los elementos procedimentales con el objetivo de alcanzar la neutralidad del impuesto. En la decisión objeto de estudio, el TJUE entra a valorar si es posible denegar la aplicación de exenciones y deducciones propias del IVA al aportar de manera extemporánea los elementos probatorios necesarios para el ejercicio de esos derechos. Para ello, entiende necesario analizar dicha posibilidad bajo el prisma de los principios de neutralidad, proporcionalidad y efectividad en las medidas procedimentales aplicadas.
The legal systems of the Member States of the European Union have developed a system of “onus probandi” at tax level which is based on a series of rules in which the procedural elements appear to be fundamental as opposed to the material elements through which a tax reality can be verified. However, VAT, with the technical particularities that characterise it and its high level of harmonisation at European level, presents certain mechanisms within which, in certain cases, the evidential requirements at a material level tend to prevail over the procedural elements with the aim of achieving the neutrality of the tax. In the decision under study, the CJEU assesses whether it is possible to refuse the application of VAT exemptions and deductions when the evidence necessary for the exercise of these rights is submitted untimely. To do so, it considers it necessary to analyse this possibility from the perspective of the principles of neutrality, proportionality and effectiveness of the procedural measures applied.
