(Case C-613/18) (<span class="super note-tag">1</span>)
(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Article 99 of the Rules of Procedure of the Court of Justice - Restrictions on the free movement of capital to or from a third country - Direct taxation - Tax on the revenue of legal persons - Profits distributed by companies resident in the territory of Portugal - Reduction in the tax base)
(2020/C 77/11)
Language of the case: Portuguese
Applicant: State of Canada
Defendant: Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira
Articles 63 and 65 TFEU must be interpreted as precluding the legislation of a Member State, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, under which the dividends distributed by a resident company are subject to a tax the effective rate of which is higher where those dividends are received by an entity resident in a third country which does not principally carry out activities of a commercial, industrial or agricultural nature than where such dividends are received by such an entity resident in that State. The situation is different only if the application of the tax convention signed on 14 June 1999 for the avoidance of double taxation and the prevention of fiscal evasion with respect to taxes on income allows the effects of the difference in treatment under the legislation of that Member State to be completely neutralised, which it is for the referring court to ascertain.
