Tax Focus 2020 | Important change in tax payments: Individual Tax Account
From the beginning of 2020, every company will have one individual tax account (the so-called ‘tax micro account’) which will pay your PIT, CIT and VAT liabilities. So instead of previously making payments to three accounts, you will only have to make one payment to your individual tax micro account.
A new individual tax account number can be generated or checked at this address: https://www.podatki.gov.pl/generator-mikrorachunku-podatkowego/ by providing your PESEL or NIP number or verify it with any tax office (without any application).
You can learn more about individual tax accounts on the government website: https://www.podatki.gov.pl/mikrorachunek-podatkowy/
The amendment enters into force on 1st January, 2020, which means that CIT and VAT receivables for December 2019 will already be settled in the amended manner. Existing tax office accounts for PIT, CIT and VAT payments will remain active until 31st December, 2019, although refunds of overpayments and taxes will be made under the existing rules, i.e. to the company account.
