MF: No schedule for introduction of retail tax

"Poland will not rush the introduction of the retailer tax as it is focused on the quality of the final solution," announced deputy Finance Minister Leszek Skiba on March 17. "This is about the internal analysis and discussion between the Minister and the parties concerned, and so far there is no schedule. It was decided that the project must be well prepared and quality has an influence on time," he continued. In early February, the Ministry of Finance published a new draft tax on retail. A few days ago, the Chairman of the Permanent Committee of the Council of Ministers, Henryk Kowalczyk, reported that the tax on both progressive and linear retail versions will not exceed the maximum level of 2 percent.
