2026 Cash Register Rules: Who Must Comply, Exemptions, and Turnover Limits Explained

• As of 2026, most businesses selling to individual consumers and flat-rate farmers must use cash registers and provide receipts, unless exempt.
• Businesses are exempt if annual sales to private individuals and flat-rate farmers do not exceed PLN 20,000; for new businesses, this limit is calculated proportionally.
• Sales to other companies (B2B), real estate, and depreciated fixed assets (with invoice) are excluded from the turnover calculation.
• Certain industries (e.g., financial, insurance, postal, courier, waste management, electricity supply, notarial, and some educational services) are always exempt from cash register requirements.
• Additional exemptions apply for businesses with over 80% sales in exempt categories, as well as for mail order sales, services paid only by bank transfer, land leasing, and sales to employees.
