Poles living in Great Britain are looking for assurance that they will not have to settle accounts with the local tax office. The family may be a problem – we read in the Wednesday edition of “Rzeczpospolita”.

As the Journal confirms, people who work permanently abroad will settle accounts with the new terms for the first time. Since the beginning of 2021, the cancellation allowance has been limited to PLN 1,360, which means that many people will have to pay taxes in Poland. “People who work in countries where we are bound by an unfavorable double taxation avoidance agreement – ​​the proportional deduction method, among others, will lose in Great Britain. That is why more and more taxpayers are asking for explanations to protect them from such a scenario. They are looking for a way to emphasize the That they are no longer Polish tax residents and do not have to pay tax here on their total income ”- we read.

The daily reports that it all depends on the taxpayer’s relationship with Poland. “The Tax Office recognizes in interpretations that a person who has moved abroad permanently is no longer a Polish resident, unless there is an immediate family here. Such an answer (Explanation No. 0113-KDIPT2-2.4011.619.2021.3.DA) was obtained by the taxpayer. , who left to work in the UK in 2018 and transferred her earnings to a bank account there. She has no husband or children. Her father still lives in Poland, she has her own apartment here, which she does no rent. She does not plan to go back., except for holidays” – We read.

“The tax office has agreed that her center of life is now abroad. In Poland, she will be subject only to a limited tax tax. This means that she does not have to pay taxes here,” reported Rzeczpospolita. (PAP)
