Apple has faced a setback in its clash with the EU over a €13 billion Irish tax bill. An adviser to the European Union's top court recommended setting aside a 2020 ruling that said Apple did not owe Ireland €13 billion in back taxes, potentially requiring Apple to pay €14 billion in owed taxes to Ireland. The advocate general of Europe’s highest court backed an EU ruling against Apple, requiring the tech giant to pay more than €13 billion in tax that the EU says is due to Ireland because of underpaid taxes between 2003 and 2014. This decision presents a challenge for Apple's financial standing and its ongoing legal battles with the EU.
