Summary/Abstract: The article reviews and analyses the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the Supreme Administrative Court concerning the taxation of municipalities with the tax on goods and services. In the practice of application of the tax law, due to the lack of precise regulations, municipalities encounter difficulties in interpreting them. The Supreme Administrative Court in its rulings tries to fill the gaps in the law by applying a pro-EU interpretation.
