Abstract
This tax is a special purpose income, which was introduced to maintain optimal fit among the tourists, by providing and maintaining cleanliness in the public domain of Mamaia. It applies to all vehicles not registered in Constanta, entering the station during the summer. But there is no justification for this discrimination between citizens of the department of Constanta and the rest of the citizens of Romania and other Member States of the European Union, while they, entering the station, are also recipients services covered by the fee.
The Court of Justice of the European Union has seen a similar discrimination, discussed in terms of freedom to provide services, and that includes freedom for the recipients/beneficiaries of services to go to another Member State in order to get a job, tourists are explicitly mentioned as recipients of services, in the case of Luigi and Giuseppe Carbone Graziani c. Ministero del Tesoro, Joined Cases C-286/82 and C026/83.
