The Court confirmed the analysis of the Tatu and Manea judgements and focused on the exemption provided by the environmental stamp duties as a way to refund the precedent charges levied in breach of Art. 110 TFEU. The EU judges found that exempting a motor vehicle from a new tax, on the basis that taxes previously in force have already been paid on that vehicle, does not ensure the neutrality of the new tax.
