Communications between members countries governments about VAT reduction for masks

La respuesta a esta solicitud está muy retrasada. Fiscalidad y Unión Aduanera ya debería haber respondido (detalles). Puedes apelar pidiendo una revisión interna.

Dear Taxation and Customs Union,

Solicito una copia de todas y cada una de las comunicaciones que el Gobierno de cada estado haya mandado preguntando si se podía reducir el IVA de las mascarillas o alguna cuestión similar para la venta al público interna en cada país, no para importaciones o compra de mascarillas entre países. Solicito también la respuesta de la Comisión a esas comunicaciones de los Gobiernos. Solicito, además, que se me detalle qué países mandaron consulta sobre eso y en qué fecha lo hizo cada uno.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your request of 18/12/2020. We hereby acknowledge receipt of your application for access to documents, which was registered on 22/12/2020 under reference number GESTDEM 2020/7930.

In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents, your application will be handled within 15 working days. The time limit will expire on 21/01/2021. In case this time limit needs to be extended, you will be informed in due course.

You have lodged your application via a private third-party website, which has no link with any institution of the European Union. Therefore, the European Commission cannot be held accountable for any technical issues or problems linked to the use of this system.

Please note that the private third party running the Ask the EU website is responsible and accountable for the processing of your personal data via that website, and not the Commission. For further information on your rights, please refer to the third party’s privacy policy.

We understand that the third party running the AsktheEU.org website usually publishes the content of applicants’ correspondence with the Commission on that website. This includes the personal data that you may have communicated to the Commission (e.g. your private postal address).

Similarly, the third party publishes on that website any reply that the Commission will send to the email address of the applicants generated by the AsktheEU.org website.

If you do not wish that your correspondence with the Commission is published on a private third-party website such as AsktheEU.org, you can provide us with an alternative, private e-mail address for further correspondence. In that case, the Commission will send all future electronic correspondence addressed to you only to that private address, and it will use only that private address to reply to your request. You should still remain responsible to inform the private third-party website about this change of how you wish to communicate with, and receive a reply from, the Commission.

For information on how we process your personal data visit our page Privacy statement – access to documents.

Please be informed that the Commission has taken precautionary measures to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus and reduce the risk of infection of our staff, while ensuring business continuity. Since 16 March, all colleagues in non-critical functions are teleworking. This may have an effect on the physical search of documents and internal/external consultations. As a consequence, the procedure to handle your applications may take longer than foreseen.

Yours faithfully,
