- The Polish VAT White List is an official register for verifying suppliers’ VAT status and bank account details, aiming to reduce VAT fraud and ensure transaction safety.
- Payments above PLN 15,000 (approx. EUR 3,500) must be made to a supplier’s bank account listed on the White List; failure to do so can result in joint VAT liability and loss of tax deductibility.
- Businesses should check the White List daily before making payments to capture any changes in supplier details and avoid penalties.
- If payment is mistakenly made to a non-listed account, filing a ZAW-NR notification within 7 days can protect the business from sanctions.
- Payments below PLN 15,000 are exempt from these requirements, but using the White List account is still recommended for best practice.
