C-265/06, Commission v Portugal [2008]

Key Points to Note in This Case

• Issue: The case addressed restrictions on the use of certain goods, specifically focusing on whether these restrictions could fall under Article 34 TFEU even if they were indistinctly applicable.

• Outcome: The Court held that such restrictions can indeed fall under Article 34, even when they apply equally to both domestic and imported goods.

• Context: This case went largely unnoticed compared to the more prominent cases of Mickelsson and Trailers.
