Latest assumption trade tax three tax rates of 0.4 per cent. to as low as 1.4 percent. Tribute not escape e-shops and petrol stations. It will not be for the additional rate for trading on the weekends. The government wants to tax effective from July 1 this year. At the same time presents … competitive proposals for a flat tax.
Update 17:38
– According to the declaration made during a protest against Sejm, we adjusted the assumptions of the project to most expectations – said at the beginning of the parliamentary proceedings of the Parliamentary Minister Henryk Kowalczyk. The government wanted once again to talk about trade tax and invited on Wednesday to representatives of the Sejm stores. But before, until today, did not represent anyone assumptions for the project.
What is assumed presented on Wednesday version of the trade tax? Back to progression. Minister Kowalczyk showed three tax rates depending on the turnover. From 1.5 million zł to 17 million zł rate will be 0.4 percent. From 17 million to 170 million zł turnover rate will amount to 0.8 percent. In turn, the final level of 1.4 percent. pay shops having a turnover in excess of 170 million per month. Monthly tax-free allowance will remain at 1.5 million zł.
Recall that in January, the Ministry wanted to over 18 million zł charge of 0.7 per cent. sales. When the shop had a turnover of over 300 million zł, the rate rose to 1.3 percent. The third threshold of 1.9 percent. included sales on weekends.
Minister Henryk Kowalczyk assured that the government departs from a special tax on Saturdays and Sundays. – We decided that in this situation there is nothing to discuss about a special tax on Sundays. It is much simpler – it is a tax the same for all days of the week – explained the Minister.
Who will be excluded from the tax?
The tax does not escape the Polish e-stores. They will pay a new tribute to the same rules as traditional outlets. There is no exemption on the sale of fuel, which means that the network of petrol stations will also have to pay tax on retail. Tax – as planned – would take effect from 1 July 2016 year. If the government PiS failed to meet that date, according to estimates, could count on the influence of approx. 1 billion zł the budget in 2016.
Eliminations relate to sales of natural gas, coal, gas cylinders, fuel oils, medicines and commodities sold as part of catering services.
the representatives of the traders were clearly surprised by the ideas of the government. Tadeusz Slawik of the Polish Group Purchasing outlined, that the project is incompatible with the election program of Law and Justice. – The project hits in Polish, the best-organized network – he explained at a meeting of the parliamentary team.
They agreed with him other entrepreneurs and cooperatives. The latter repeated that since 1989 have no support. – It will be a slow dying native Polish cooperative trade – said one of the representatives Spolem.
They reminded the government before the elections promised taxation is not sales, but large retail chains. And this project hits the average Polish company.
The second version of the tax for journalists
Though the consultation with traders still in progress, the Minister Henryk Kowalczyk, Deputy Finance Minister Wieslaw Janczyk they left the meeting. Head of the Standing Committee of the Council of Ministers of the corridor Sejm said in an interview with reporters that he personally leans toward the flat tax. So a completely different solution.
– It would be one rate of 0.9 percent. above the amount of 204 million zł annual turnover – Henryk Kowalczyk said.
He said that is a very good solution. He recalled that at the moment, however, only proposals. He could not say when the formation of the text of the bill, which will go to the government consultations.
– Today we present proposals, but the degree of awareness does not publish any of this, because it is not a final draft of the government – said Kowalczyk. And for a moment he added that it is possible that further work in the parliament … the government will send a draft of a flat tax.
Such a solution is the idea of the Parliamentary Team for the Promotion of Entrepreneurship and Economic Patriotism. They presented it at the end of February. Besides linear rate it assumes taxation of individual entities, not the entire network. Take advantage of this network would be associating and franchise (including Spolem, Leviathan, ABC). It also provides for the deduction year from the tax base CIT and PIT.
