Invoice Issuance Dates in KSeF May Cause VAT Deduction Delays for Buyers

  • The date of invoice issuance in the KSeF system may cause issues for buyers.
  • The invoice is considered issued on the date it is sent to the National e-Invoice System.
  • Buyers must receive the invoice within the same month to deduct VAT for that month.
  • Delays in receiving invoices can lead to financial difficulties for businesses.
  • Structured invoices are considered issued when sent to KSeF and received when assigned an ID number.
  • Delayed VAT deduction can worsen financial situations, especially for businesses with significant subcontractor expenses.
  • The obligation to pay VAT arises when goods are delivered or services are performed.
  • The current law requires the invoice to be received before VAT can be deducted.
  • This requirement can be problematic for small businesses, causing them to finance the tax authority for a month.
  • Removing the condition of receiving the invoice for VAT deduction could alleviate issues.
