Transfer pricing adjustment – a method for losing arm’s length of controlled transactions

  • Purpose and Conditions for TP Adjustments: Transfer pricing (TP) adjustments, introduced in Poland in 2019, are essential for aligning transactions between related parties with the arm’s length principle. Taxpayers can apply these adjustments under Article 11e of the CIT Act when certain conditions are met, such as documenting that the transactions were initially at market prices and that changes in circumstances necessitate an adjustment.
  • Impact on VAT and Transactional Relationships: TP adjustments can affect the value of transactions, raising questions about VAT obligations. If the adjustment is directly related to specific goods or services, it may require corrective invoices; if it’s a general profitability adjustment, it might not be subject to VAT, emphasizing the need for careful analysis of each case.
  • Frequency and Timing of TP Corrections: While Polish regulations do not specify how often TP corrections should occur, they suggest that adjustments typically happen after the tax year ends. However, adjustments can be made more frequently if justified by market conditions, such as fluctuations in economic factors, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring of profitability in controlled transactions.
