Poland has announced that it will make B2B electronic electronic invoicing mandatory in 2023, after a voluntary phase beginning at the end of 2021.
The characteristics of the new invoicing system have been published in the legal project published in February by the Ministry of Finance.
The government wants to advance the digitalization of the tax system and reap the rewards that other countries in the European Union are already experiencing through the implementation of an electronic invoicing system. An example of this is Italy, where the B2B electronic invoice has been mandatory since 2019. In fact, the new electronic tax and invoicing system is very similar to the Italian one, where all invoices must be declared through a central platform called the National Electronic Invoicing System –KseF similar to the Italian SDI.
To promote the use of the new platform the government has announced a 1/3 reduction in VAT return times (20 days instead of 40 or 60) for its users and has exempted its users from having to declare the JPK_FA file.
Still not ratified by the council of ministers, below we will detail the most relevant characteristics about the new Polish electronic invoicing system.
