Such a supply of services is not covered by the exemption provided for in Article 146(1)(e) of that directive.<\/p>\n<p>2) Article 135(1)(d) of Directive 2006\/112 must be interpretedof Directive 2006\/112 must be interpreted as meaning that: an activity of managing the refund of value added tax (VAT) that purchasers not resident in the Union paid at the time of purchasing goods that they then transported outside the Union is not covered by the exempt transactions provided for in that article.<\/p>\n<p>3) The principle of protection of legitimate expectations must be interpreted as meaning that: it does not preclude the tax authority from subsequently subjecting certain services to value added tax (VAT), where that administration has, for several years, audited and accepted the taxable person's VAT returns without challenging the classification of those supplies as exempt from VAT and has not informed that taxable person of the change in the national legislation in force which, in its previous version, expressly mentioned those supplies among the activities exempt from VAT. In that context, it is irrelevant that, following a request for an opinion submitted under the national legislation in force, the taxable person received an ex post and non-binding reply from the tax authority according to which those services should be considered ancillary expenses of an exempt supply of goods sharing the same VAT exemption regime applicable to the main transaction.<\/p>\n<p>4) Articles 73 and 78 of Directive 2006\/112 must be interpreted as precluding the practice of the tax authority of a Member State which consists in considering that the amounts invoiced in consideration for a value added tax (VAT) refund management service, that is to say, the management fee, correspond to net amounts, which do not include VAT where the supplier has considered its supply to be exempt and it is manifestly impossible for it to pass on retrospectively to the purchasers of goods exempt from VAT the amount of VAT claimed by the tax authority.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX:62023CJ0427\">https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX:62023CJ0427<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div id=\"ju2\" class=\"x-text offset-anchor\" style=\"\" ><p><strong>IV.2.

According to the 2025 edition, Portugal continues to grow, in line with the EU trend. With a performance 3% higher than the previous year and ranked 16th among the 27 Member States, it is classified as a Moderate Innovator, with a performance of 90.7% of the European average in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Innovation in Portugal has continued to perform well since 2018 (+9.0%), despite being slightly below the EU average. The report identifies direct and indirect government support for R&amp;D in companies, the percentage of foreign doctoral students, and public-private co-publications as strengths of innovation in Portugal. The indicator for intellectual property assets shows that trademark applications have remained stable since 2018 and are around the EU average, in line with the profile of countries with a large service sector, such as Portugal. Patent applications under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) have decreased slightly, by 2% since 2018.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/inpi.justica.gov.pt\/Noticias-do-INPI\/Portugal-considerado-inovador-moderado-no-Painel-Europeu-de-Inovacao-2025-1\">https:\/\/inpi.justica.gov.pt\/Noticias-do-INPI\/Portugal-considerado-inovador-moderado-no-Painel-Europeu-de-Inovacao-2025-1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>On August 14 provisional statistics were released on industrial property rights (IPR) applications and grants for July 2025, highlighting the following:<\/p>\n<p>(i) Between January and July 2025, 591 applications for national inventions were filed (up from 538 applications filed in the same period last year);<\/p>\n<p>(ii) With regard to concessions, 164 national inventions were granted between January and July 2025, compared to 121 granted between January and July 2024, representing a growth of 35.5%;<\/p>\n<p>(iii) The total number of International Applications and European Patent Applications, via INPI as the Receiving Office, was 42 between January and July 2025 (close to the figure recorded in the same period in 2024).
