The Polish Anti-Crisis Shield – reporting obligations of taxpayers

The president has signed a special act called the „Anti-crisis Shield”. The act introduces a number of simplifications, tax deferrals, and assistance solutions for companies and employees made to counteract the bankruptcy, unemployment, and economic recession caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The law and the accompanying regulations introduce, among other things, postponements of deadlines:
✓ the obligation for large taxpayers to submit new JPK_V7M until July 1, 2020;
✓ preparation of the 2019 financial statements;
✓ submitting the annual CIT-8 tax return for the 2019 tax year and the tax settlement for this purpose, as a rule until May 31, 2020, for all taxpayers;
✓ submission of ORD-U and IFT-2R tax information by May 31, 2020.
