Mevcut AB müktesebatı, ödeme hizmetleri, kara paranın aklanmasıyla mücadele ve veri koruma alanlarında görece gelişmiş bir çerçeve sunsa da, merkez bankası dijital paralarının vergisel sonuçlarını doğrudan düzenleyen bütüncül bir yapı henüz oluşmamıştır. Özellikle Katma Değer Vergisi’nin vergiyi doğuran olayın tespiti, dijital euro aracılığıyla gerçekleşen anlık ve sınır ötesi işlemler bağlamında yeniden değerlendirilmesini gerektirmektedir. Bununla birlikte, Dijital Euro’nun aracı kurumlar üzerinden işletilmesi, Vergi Konularında İdari İş Birliği Direktifi (DAC) kapsamında vergiye ilişkin veri akışının genişletilmesi için önemli bir potansiyel sunmaktadır. Ancak bu potansiyel, GDPR ve çevrimdışı ödeme tasarımlarının öngördüğü mahremiyet ilkeleriyle doğrudan bir gerilim yaratmaktadır. Dolayısıyla Dijital Euro, AB düzeyinde vergisel şeffaflık, mahremiyet ve tek pazar bütünlüğü arasında hassas bir regülasyon dengesinin yeniden kurulmasını gerektiren yapısal bir dönüşüm alanı olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır.</p></abstract>

                            <p>The implementation of the digital euro in the European Union necessitates not only the digitalization of monetary sovereignty but also the restructuring of taxation regimes. While the current EU acquis offers a relatively advanced framework in the areas of payment services, combating money laundering, and data protection, a comprehensive structure directly regulating the tax implications of central bank digital currencies has not yet been established. In particular, the determination of the taxable event for Value Added Tax (VAT) requires a reassessment in the context of instantaneous and cross-border transactions conducted via the digital euro. However, the operation of the Digital Euro through intermediaries presents significant potential for expanding tax-related data flows under the Administrative Cooperation in Tax Matters (DAC) Directive. This potential, however, creates a direct tension with the privacy principles envisioned by the GDPR and offline payment designs. Therefore, the Digital Euro emerges as an area of structural transformation requiring a re-establishment of a delicate regulatory balance between tax transparency, privacy, and single market integrity at the EU level.</p></trans-abstract>
