Maintaining VAT

Polish law enables the settlement of VAT in a period other than the period when the document is posted. Therefore, to pay the value added tax on goods and services (VAT) to the tax office, it is necessary to specify when a transaction caused tax liability i.e to determine the VAT settlement date. The VAT settlement date determines when the sales tax should be paid and if any VAT amounts should be deducted in subsequent months.

As part of the Polish Localization application, a number of solutions have been prepared to support VAT-related processes in compliance with the regulations in force in Poland.
