Poland’s FA3 Data Schema: Key Changes and Timeline for Mandatory E-Invoicing

  • Poland is implementing the National e-Invoicing System (KSeF) to mandate e-invoicing for all businesses.
  • The FA3 data schema is a new XML format replacing the FA2 schema to improve transparency and reduce tax fraud.
  • E-invoicing reform aligns with European efforts to close the VAT gap.
  • KSeF was introduced voluntarily in 2022 and is mandatory for B2G transactions since 2019.
  • Mandatory e-invoicing for B2B transactions starts in 2026.
  • Rollout phases: February 1, 2026, for large taxpayers; April 1, 2026, for all other VAT taxpayers.
  • FA3 schema standardizes e-invoice data for automated processing and compliance.
  • Key differences between FA3 and FA2 include updated schema identification, new invoice metadata fields, and expanded VAT rate dictionary.
  • FA3 introduces new features like payment link URLs, attachment tags, and flexible payment deadlines.
