Defendant: Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira
Question referred
In the context of taxation of dividends distributed by a company established in the national territory to a non-resident entity, is it compatible with the principle precluding restrictions on movements of capital between Member States and third countries for there to be an effective rate of corporation tax which is applied more disadvantageously to entities resident in a third country than to a resident in the national territory which is similar in nature?
