- The VAT rates in Poland (currently 23% and 8%) will return to their previous levels (22% and 7%) only when defense spending does not exceed 3% of GDP. As long as defense expenditures are above this threshold, the higher VAT rates will remain in place. This was clarified by the Ministry of Finance in response to a parliamentary inquiry. The increased VAT rates, introduced in 2011 as a temporary measure during the financial crisis, have been repeatedly extended and are still in effect after 15 years.
