For years we have been observing the growing complexity and variability of the Polish tax regulations that is followed by alarming penal-fiscal consequences. We hear it also from you. That is why we have organised a survey on a group of 32 member companies to show the reality that companies active in Poland need to deal with.

The results of the survey were complemented with the information from the audit and advisory company Grant Thornton.

In the report you can also find commentaries of representatives of our member companies. They include hints, what should be changed to make the regulations more company-friendly.

Below you will find the attached English and Polish version of the report as well as many articles in Polish that were published in the media recently.
