Tax me, please
Research indicates that the number of entrepreneurs who chose to pay tax this way grew by 50,000 last year and now amounts to almost 250,000.
Fears that budget revenues would decrease following the introduction of the linear tax proved unfounded as preliminary data shows that tax revenues from entrepreneurs are now higher than in the past.
"Let this be a lesson for the government and parliament that the budget can only gain by lowering taxes," the president of the Confederation of Polish Employers, Andrzej Malinowski, told Rzeczpospolita.
Many self-employed people choose the linear tax to avoid paying a 30 or 40 percent tax rate. Previously, using various tax allowances proved to be more profitable than the linear tax. However, when most of the allowances were abandoned, the linear tax became much more attractive.
