Legal Implications of Receiving Structured Invoices via KSeF from February 2026

  • Receiving a structured invoice via KSeF is not equivalent to receiving a paper or electronic invoice in terms of legal effects.
  • VAT invoices are commonly used as commercial documents and their delivery is considered an effective payment request.
  • Receiving a structured invoice via KSeF does not automatically create civil law effects; it depends on the parties’ agreement.
  • The legal status of receiving a VAT invoice via KSeF is only tax-related, not civil law-related.
  • From February 1, 2026, receiving a structured invoice via KSeF will not have civil law effects unless otherwise agreed in a contract.
  • Receiving an invoice via KSeF is mainly for informing the taxpayer of the invoice issuance.
  • There is no obligation for active VAT taxpayers to monitor KSeF, and there are no penalties for not doing so.
  • From February 1, 2026, parties must find another way to acknowledge payment obligations for goods or services.
