The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's complaint regarding the lack of reasoning in a customs surcharge decision. The court held that while administrative acts must logically justify their decisions, the law permits 'reasoning by reference' to specific legal provisions. Consequently, the court ruled that citing the relevant articles satisfied the requirement for a valid administrative act.
