New VAT-R form

There have been some significant changes on the VAT-R form in Poland.

The VAT-R is the form necessary to initiate VAT registration in Poland. Further to the two changes above, the form will now include the option to indicate that a particular taxpayer is part of a VAT group. The form also allows taxpayers to select whether financial services are taxed, or whether they are exempt from taxation.

An English version of the form is also available.

The new form came into effect from 1 July 2022. A transitional period has allowed taxpayers some flexibility and meant that the previous version could be used until 31 June 2022.
