First attitudes towards tax harmonization were very ambitious. The aim was not only to reach structural harmonization in the Member States, but also harmonization of tax base and tax rates. The article explores the nature and conditions of the harmonization process while addressing its legislative modifications. The article analyses and compares the most important indirect taxes (value added tax, excise duties) in the Member States of the EU. Despite decades of efforts to harmonize taxes countries continuously apply national taxes. Heads of the Union argue that this approach can lead to disintegration in the future.展开更多
