- In 2026, the KSeF system will contain documents that mimic VAT invoices, referred to as “phantom invoices.”
- There will be confusion due to invoices being sent electronically to contractors and then later uploaded to KSeF, resulting in two versions of the same invoice with different receipt dates.
- This duplication creates legal and practical ambiguities, such as which document is the official VAT invoice and which date is relevant for payment and tax purposes.
- The situation may lead to administrative chaos and potential legal absurdities, as both documents could be considered invoices under current regulations.
- The issue could be resolved by recognizing only the first document as the official VAT invoice, with the KSeF version being a non-binding copy.
