Stibbe is also assisting and representing clients in other indirect tax areas, such as stamp tax and real estate transfer tax.

 

We are litigating on behalf of several financial institutions following the ECJ Case C-415/02 of July 15, 2004 (EU Commission v. Belgium) that invalidated several Belgian indirect taxes on the sale or transfer of securities. We have also obtained very favorable advance tax rulings in connection with real estate transfer tax for the transfer of in rem rights on Belgian real estate.
