Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to determine the temporary scope of application of the provisions of the general anti-avoidance rule (GAAR) with regard to income taxes. It has to be determined when – as for income taxes – tax advantage arises. According to the authors, the tax benefit in income taxes may arise already during the tax year. Therefore, in the light of the intertemporal provisions of the act introducing GAAR into the legal system, if a taxpayer has carried out actions which result in deduction of certain expenses or in the non-existence of revenues and the moment of deduction of costs by the taxpayer or the date on which the tax revenue would have arisen fall on the period before the clause came into force – these provisions do not apply to such facts.
