Questão jurídica principal
Whether the advertising services to the Austrian client qualified as tax-exempt exported services and entitled the company to VAT refund.
Decisão extraída
The company did not prove by books and documents that the services were exported and used abroad; the refund was therefore denied.
Fundamentação extraída
For service exports, the taxpayer must prove the nature of the service and the foreign seat of the recipient with detailed written evidence. The submitted account sheets and bank debit notice did not establish the recipient, the service content, or foreign use with the required certainty.
