The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the taxpayer's appeal regarding stamp duty on a building project. Although the taxpayer failed to submit a second valuation request, the court found that the impossibility of construction was duly proven. Consequently, the court ruled that the lack of actual building capacity, a prerequisite for the tax, meant the levy could not be applied.

SUMÁRIO

Pese embora não ter sido apresentado um requerimento de 2.ª avaliação do imóvel, a impossibilidade de construção no referido imóvel, devidamente comprovada, não pode deixar de ser relevante para efeito de liquidação de imposto de selo, cobrado tendo por pressuposto a capacidade edificativa, que se verifica não existir de facto.
