In its proposal submitted today, the European Commission has proposed a new system thereby Member States would be able to apply similarly reduced rates of VAT for electronic books and publications as they are allowed for physical books. The European and International Booksellers Federation and the Federation of European Publishers welcome this proposal, which could finally resolve this long-standing issue.
