Sintesi Omnilex

The decision concerns the tourism encouragement tax. The court held that treating enterprises not entered in the communal business tax roll as also excluded from the tourism encouragement tax roll violates the principle of equal treatment. The challenged exclusion was therefore not upheld.

Massima Omnilex

LTour. 25; equal treatment in tourism encouragement tax assessments: the mere fact that enterprises are not entered in the communal business tax roll does not justify excluding them, without further differentiation, from the tourism encouragement tax roll. Such parallel exclusion constitutes an unlawful unequal treatment under the equality principle.
