But, an intra-Community acquisition takes place for VAT purposes and must be declared
The taxable value of this intra-Community acquisition does not take into account Maltese excise duties to be paid at a later stage
From the moment Maltese excise duties are paid (release from the excise suspension regime), the taxable value of the intra-Community acquisition must be adjusted by adding excise duties to this value
VAT has to be paid on the value of the excise duties paid (no adjustment if the taxable person is entitled to deduct entirely VAT) Intra-Community acquisition: taxable value for taxable person art. 10

VAT paid on the value of these excise duties at the origin must be refunded to the taxable person (no adjustment is made if the taxable person is entitled to deduct entirely VAT)
Intra-Community acquisition: taxable value for taxable person art. 10
