Report highlights the changing realities of tax controls in Poland

 

Jakub Warnieło and Aleksandra Bulaszewska outline the key takeaways from a report on Polish tax trends, covering tax inspections, verification activities, tax proceedings, and the business viewpoint.

A report published in June 2025 by MDDP in cooperation with the Polish Lewiatan Confederation provides a comprehensive overview of recent trends in tax audits, tax verification activities, and tax proceedings in the country. Business Under the Tax Microscope – Poland, which covers 2019–24, highlights several key implications for businesses.

From the perspective of businesses, the greatest challenges in the Polish tax system remain the complexity of tax laws, their frequent amendments, and occasionally inconsistent interpretations by authorities. These factors increase the risk of uncertainty in tax settlements. At the same time, a growing number of businesses are turning to compliance tools and solutions aimed at enhancing tax security, such as tax rulings, cooperative compliance programmes, and protective opinions.

The ongoing digitalisation of Poland’s tax administration is viewed positively. Today, the vast majority of cases can be handled online, and planned solutions will introduce even greater automation and transparency. While these changes require companies to adapt, they also significantly simplify ongoing interaction with the tax authorities.
