E-books are subject to VAT at the standard rate, making them distinct from printed titles with their reduced rate provisions, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has determined.

The long-running debate on books’ discrepancy of rates between digital and print went before the court as the result of the European Commission’s infraction proceedings against Luxembourg and France for applying sales tax at reduced rates to e-books of 3% and 5.5% respectively.
