Business Tax Advisory in Poland

Although the tax rates in income taxes are attractive in comparison to other EU countries (for example corporate income tax – 19% flat rate), the Polish tax laws are very complex and difficult to interpret, even for the people who deal with them daily as accountants and the clerks at tax offices.

Comparing Polish tax laws with the laws of neighboring countries only in terms of their volume it is easy to notice that Polish law contains on average twice as many rules. Poland is one of the few countries to impose the obligation to use special cash registers with fiscal memory on traders, even for those with low sales turnover (currently the limit is more than about 5k euros per year). Furthermore in case of any breakdown of such equipment sale is prohibited.

Transfer pricing rules applied in other countries only to entities with large turnover are used in Poland for transactions exceeding the annual amount of EUR 30k (services) or 50k EUR in other cases, and so they apply to even the smallest companies.

Quality of Polish Tax Advice

The huge burden of regulation has caused a narrowing of specialization among business tax advisory to the degree that not everyone can (even if they claim they do) manage the given issue.

Moreover, on the Polish market act, many poorly experienced practitioners (not having government approval as licensed tax advisors) offer their “services” that can misguide foreign companies and individual businessmen. This might cause great damage to the business in the long term.

Advantages for our clients

Taking into consideration the complexity of the law and the presence of many poorly qualified practitioners the clients need to have all their tax issues directed and supervised by a professional consulting firm with familiarity with Polish reality and able to find and cooperate with reliable authorized business tax advisory across a diversity of fields.
