Obligatory National System of e-Invoices is to be adjured
On January 19, 2024, during a press briefing, Finance Minister Andrzej Domanski announced that it will not be possible to introduce a mandatory National System of e-Invoices (KSeF) for businesses this year.
As a reminder, from July 1, 2024 new regulations were to come into force requiring taxpayers registered as active VAT taxpayers to issue invoices exclusively by means of the KSeF.
The Minister of Finance has stated that the current state of work precludes the implementation of this system, as it would threaten the stability of business. The system contains bugs, mainly related to throughput, which would make it difficult for businesses to issue structured invoices. In addition, a tender for an external audit has been announced to help detect further flaws in the system.
For the time being, it is not known when the KSeF will become mandatory. It has merely been emphasised that this will happen as soon as possible, provided that the security of business transactions is ensured.
