In the Council of European Union decision which was published last week (Articles 218 and 232 of Directive 2006/112/EC), it was announced that the obligation of the Polish e-Invoice system would be postponed from the planned date to start in January 2024. In a statement made by the Polish government, this decision was approved and the date of obligation to start using e-Invoices is withdrawn to January 2024. The volunteering process began in January 2022 and will continue for entrepreneurs. At the same time, it is planned to continue with the benefits provided to taxpayers. Some of the advantages are;
- No risk of invoice loss or destruction as all e-Invoices will be stored in a central database,
- No need to issue duplicate invoices,
- Standardization: no need to process different invoicing formats such as PDF or paper invoice, and
- Tax security increases for buyers
