LONDON, England – The UK government is announcing that it intends not to implement a ruling by the European Court of Justice that would have been enormously damaging to the UK’s tourism exports. This ruling was passed on September 26th and governs how package tourism services are taxed under a scheme called the Tour Operators Margin Scheme (TOMS)*. The court ruled that wholesale supplies may be covered by this tax, that calculations had to be done on a sale by sale basis and that the operators’ net margin had to be visible on the tax invoice.
