- The Polish Supreme Administrative Court (NSA) ruled that SaaS providers supporting e-commerce can be considered VAT facilitators, not just large marketplaces.
- The court adopted a broad definition of “facilitating” sales via electronic interfaces, meaning even companies that only provide technical support and infrastructure may have VAT obligations.
- The case involved a company offering SaaS solutions for online stores, which did not operate a classic marketplace but enabled transactions between sellers and buyers.
- Tax authorities and courts found that providing electronic tools and supporting transactions is enough to be classified as a VAT facilitator, regardless of company size.
- This decision extends VAT settlement obligations to smaller tech firms in the e-commerce sector, not just industry giants.
