- Poland’s Ministry of Digital Affairs proposes a Digital Services Tax (DST) on major multinational tech companies.
- The DST targets companies with global revenues over EUR 750 million.
- Tax rates range from 3% to 6% for broad digital activities and 5% to 7.5% for targeted digital advertising.
- The tax aims to ensure fair competition between global and European, especially Polish, businesses.
- Revenue from the tax will support Polish technology, innovation, and media content.
- DST applies to digital platforms, ride-sharing apps, targeted ads, and data sales.
- Exemptions include platforms offering content, communication, or payment services, regulated financial services, and direct online sales without intermediaries.
- The tax base is calculated using existing data, with user location determined by reasonable assumptions.
- The next step involves drafting a bill and conducting a public consultation process.
