57It should be recalled in this connection that it is only exceptionally that, in application of a general principle of legal certainty which is inherent in the EU legal order, the Court may decide to restrict the right to rely upon a provision, which it has interpreted, with a view to calling in question legal relations established in good faith. Such a restriction may, according to the Court’s settled case-law, be allowed only in the actual judgment ruling upon the interpretation sought (judgment of 17 July 2008, Krawczyński, C‑426/07, EU:C:2008:434, paragraphs 42 and 43).
