Operative part

Article 10 of Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes – Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment, as amended by Council Directive 2002/38/EC of 7 May 2002, must be interpreted as meaning that it does not preclude national legislation and administrative practice fixing the starting point of the limitation period for an action for recovery of improperly deducted value added tax as the day on which the taxable person lodged the VAT return in which he claimed for the first time a right to deduct.
