A revolution in reporting obligations for VAT purposes

Dear All,

attached you can find the tax alert „A revolution in reporting obligations for VAT purposes”. As of October 1st 2020, a new structure of JPK_VAT file came into force. It involves a wide range of changes in VAT reporting. Therefore, we request you to have a look at these changes.

Furthermore, we request you to have a look at the appendix to the tax alert „The complete list of groups of goods and services that should be covered by the mandatory indication”. The above information is necessary to draw up the VAT register correctly and therefore to avoid the strict tax sanctions.

What will we discuss?
Decades after emerging from under IT’s wing, the cybersecurity profession has matured. As we emerge from the pandemic, cyber stands at a critical, pivotal, exciting time for the industry and the organisations and people it serves. This is evidenced by our latest Global Digital Trust Insights 2021.

Our findings from the survey of 3,249 businesses and technology executives around the world tell us what’s changing and what’s next in cybersecurity. Key findings include:
• 50% of say that they bake cybersecurity and privacy into every business decision.
• 55% of business and IT leaders report increasing cyber budgets in 2021.
• 56% rated a ransomware attack as likely or very likely over the next year, and 58% said the consequences would be negative.
• 51% businesses are making plans to increase their cybersecurity headcount in the next 12 months.

What does this mean for Central and Eastern Europe?

COVID-19 accelerated the adoption of cyber security solutions and forced companies to take a bolder approach. Often faced with older infrastructure and scepticism, we are seeing new rapid acceleration of cybersecurity solutions in our region as a result of the pandemic.

Our panel of PwC experts and special guests will discuss the future of cybersecurity in CEE, interpret the survey results for our region, and share our own stories of structuring cyber practices.

Please register your interest in taking part, and explore the Digital Trust Insights findings in the meantime.

We hope you will join us!

Best regards

Vitra Summit 2020

This year has radically changed our perception of space: We started avoiding places we share with strangers or any environment that could subject us to chance encounters. We were ordered to remain in our homes by governments worldwide. Companies were forced into the mass experiment of remote working. Our homes suddenly became a place in which to work, spend time with the family, learn, celebrate, grieve and more – all at the same time.

Over the two days of the Vitra Summit, a streaming event hosted online on 22 and 23 October, Vitra intends to go beyond the obvious implications. Vitra believes that surroundings continually shape our thoughts and feelings. Interior spaces can shift corporate cultures, lift spirits and impact the wellbeing of their inhabitants. We invite you to reflect with us on how to future-proof environments – at home, in the office and on the go.

Join us for two days of interactive, digital exchange, with scientific findings, know-how and best practices related to the future of shared spaces.

Natek – Webinar

From an on-site manager to a remote leader
How has IT project management changed in the current climate? We are glad to show you an on-demand webinar focusing on managing teams and projects in the new, virtual reality. The speakers – IT Project Manager Michał czub and Service Operations Manager Martin Folta shared their expertise and reflected on the experiences they had following the recent change.

Before the COVID-19 crisis hit, many companies had already been working towards implementing strategies to enable their teams – often spread geographically across multiple projects – to collaborate and communicate smoothly and efficiently.
Now with the shock stricken by the pandemic, project and team managers struggled with strategies to help their teams stay focused and productive while working from home.
During this webinar we discussed, e.g. how so many managers thrown in ‘cart before the horse’ situation, regained control and got back on track with managing the new, virtual reality.

You can watch the Webinar on YouTube.
