VAT registration in Poland
Permalink Closed


Hi

I have a VAT reg Limited Co who have made one small sale 2,000 to Poland.  I understand the Intrastat/ EU sales list rules but I am not 100% sure if we need to register for VAT in Poland as there appears to be conflicting advice on web searches.

This was my understanding:

 

Non-Polish Entities

 

Non-Polish entities that carry out taxable supplies in Poland are obliged to register for VAT regardless of their taxable turnover.

 

However, non-Polish entities are not obliged to register if they affect only certain activities, such as for example:

 

  • Supplies of goods for which the VAT is settled by the customer (reverse charge)
  • Supplies of services for which the VAT is settled by the customer (reverse charge)

I always assumed you sent an invoice with both Company VAT numbers and reversed charge but some of my searches say that the limit for sales on a non resident Company are zero, so we WOULD need to register and the customer is saying the same to us??

A B2B sale to Poland does NOT trigger a liability to register there. That is why the Reverse Charge procedure is in place.

Thank you for confirmation, I shouldn't have doubted myself!
