Proposal to rise threshold to PLN 240k from PLN 200k to acknowledge record inflation

Included in 12 April 2025 proposed amendments to the KSeF e-invoicing regime was news that the annual sales threshold for compulsory VAT registration is to rise. It will increase from the current PLN 200,000 to PLN 240,000 (approx €56,000). The likely implementation date will be 1 January 2026.

Following the 2025 EU SME VAT registration changes, member states may raise their VAT registration threshold to a maximum of  €85,000.

EU VAT registration thresholds vary by country and apply mainly to domestic businesses (see table below). Each EU member state sets its own annual turnover threshold, below which businesses are not required to register for VAT. For example, thresholds range from €10,000 to €100,000. Non-resident businesses generally must register from the first sale. Special schemes like the One-Stop Shop (OSS) simplify compliance for cross-border B2C services and goods within the EU.
