Significance of VAT obligations security in ongoing simplified restructuring proceedings – NSA ruling analysis

• The case concerned the Director of the Tax Administration Chamber in Kielce issuing a decision to secure tax liabilities against a company based in Kielce.
• The main issue was tax liabilities in VAT for the period from January 2020 to August 2020, which the company argued should be covered by a restructuring arrangement.
• The tax administration argued that the decision to secure tax liabilities was lawful as the liabilities existed before the restructuring proceedings.
• The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the appeal, stating that the tax liabilities should have been covered by the restructuring arrangement and the securing proceedings should be terminated.
• The court’s ruling has significant implications for cases involving securing tax liabilities, especially in the context of restructuring proceedings, requiring tax authorities to carefully analyze the timing of tax liabilities to avoid unlawful actions in securing them.
