- The Polish government is considering increasing VAT on certain non-alcoholic drinks, including non-alcoholic beer, wine, cider, and energy drinks.
- Currently, these drinks are taxed at reduced VAT rates of 5% (retail) and 8% (catering) if they contain at least 20% fruit or vegetable juice.
- The proposed amendment would raise the VAT rate on these non-alcoholic beverages and energy drinks.
- The change is part of a responsible social and health policy.
- The proposal is under discussion and expected to be passed by the Council of Ministers in Q4 2025.
