- Poland is introducing major changes to JPK_VAT due to mandatory e-invoicing (KSeF) and the Deposit Refund Scheme (DRS).
- New invoice fields and codes must be used in JPK_VAT if the KSeF number is unavailable; buyers must also report KSeF numbers in purchase records.
- The DRS requires annual reconciliation and reporting of un-returned deposits, with new JPK_VAT fields for these transactions.
- The standard VAT refund period will be shortened from 60 to 40 days for compliant businesses.
- Changes take effect for February 2026 (monthly) and Q1 2026 (quarterly) filings; businesses must update systems, train staff, and prepare for compliance.
