Tax compliance in Poland

Tax compliance in Poland covers the returns and payments a company owes once it is trading: corporate income tax, VAT, withholding on payments such as dividends and fees paid abroad, and the related records. For a foreign-owned company, the extra question is how Polish rules interact with the tax position of the owner in another country, which a local firm cannot answer alone.

The Ministry of Finance publishes the corporate income tax rates: 19% as the basic rate, with 9% for small taxpayers and companies starting out if the conditions on that page are met. Whether your company qualifies depends on its facts, so ask the firm to confirm it in writing.

In a profile, look for licensed tax advisers on staff, the entity types handled and the languages offered. Ask who signs the returns, how deadlines are tracked and whether the firm has worked with owners based in your country.

Accountanty lists 269 firms for tax compliance in Poland: 232 accounting firms, 19 corporate services providers and 18 law firms. English is offered by 147 and Russian by 51.

Frequently asked questions

Does a foreign-owned company pay Polish corporate income tax?

A company registered in Poland is taxed in Poland on its income there, whoever owns it. The rate depends on the company and its revenue, so ask a licensed adviser to confirm which one applies before you budget.

Who is responsible if a return is filed late?

The company and its management remain responsible, even when a firm prepares the return. Agree in the engagement letter who tracks deadlines, who approves each filing and what happens if the tax office asks questions.

Do I need a licensed tax adviser or will an accountant do?

Routine returns are often prepared by accountants. Advice on structuring, cross-border payments or disputes with the tax office is usually given by a licensed tax adviser, so check the licences declared on each profile.
