Re:
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Rechtbank Breda — Interpretation of Articles 56 TFEU to 62 TFEU — National legislation providing for the levy of a registration tax upon the first use of a vehicle on the national road network
Operative part of the order
Articles 49 EC to 55 EC must be interpreted as meaning that they preclude national legislation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, pursuant to which a person residing or established in one Member State who uses, in that Member State, a motor vehicle registered and hired in another Member State must, upon the first use of that vehicle on the road network of the first Member State, pay in full a tax the balance of which, calculated according to the duration of use of the vehicle on the network, is reimbursed, without interest, after that use has ended.
