Entrepreneurs want to move companies abroad after publication of Polish Deal
21:33
According to information from law firms offering advice on setting up businesses abroad (Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Malta), since last Saturday – the day of the announcement of the Polish Deal by the United Right – their websites do not meet the interest of clients, which the servers feel.
“ Information about the planned tax changes has sowed such uncertainty among entrepreneurs that since the announcement of the Polish Deal our website has been under a real siege,” Maciej Oniszczuk from the Oniszczuk & Associates law firm, specializing in legal and tax consultancy for business or establishing companies in Poland and abroad, said.
“More and more people are asking about the possibility of moving their business outside Poland, and countries such as the Czech Republic, Malta, and Cyprus are of the greatest interest,” Oniszczuk added.
All because of the tax part of the Polish Deal. According to the calculations of Grant Thornton analysts, people running a business, including the self-employed, will lose the most from the changes. An entrepreneur with an income of PLN 12,000 gross a month will pay more in tributes by over PLN 5,500 per year, and with income reaching PLN 20,000 gross, its taxation will increase by over PLN 14,000. This is to be the effect of the change in the method of calculating the health insurance premium, which will be calculated on the basis of the entire income. Only to a small extent will the losses on health insurance be reduced by the higher tax-exempt amount and the increase in the second tax threshold.
