Interested party: Državni zbor Republike Slovenije
Article 15(3) of Directive 2006/123/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 December 2006 on services in the internal market, read in the light of Articles 16 and 38 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,
must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation which, as regards a purchase or rental by a natural person of a single-family dwelling, a flat or a residential unit, provides for a cap on the commission charged for property intermediation services:
in the case of a purchase or sale of immovable property the contract value of which exceeds or is equal to EUR 10 000, amounting to 4 % of the price stipulated in the contract, and
in the case of rental, amounting to 4 % of the product of multiplying the monthly rent by the number of months for which the property is let, it being understood that that commission cannot exceed one month’s rent,
provided that that legislation does not go beyond what is necessary to attain the objectives which it pursues and that there are no other less restrictive measures allowing the same result to be achieved.
