Tax workshops at the Kozminski University 2020

The last (in this year) tax workshops for students of the Kozminski University will be held online.

The meeting will be devoted to the abuse of law in VAT in the context of EU law. The workshops will be led by Małgorzata Militz, an expert in VAT.

The purpose of the meeting is to explore the concept of the “clause prohibiting abuse of law”, enabling tax authorities to challenge taxpayers’ rights arising from VAT regulations. The national regulations of the VAT Act define this concept, however its correct understanding is based on the interpretation made by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). Prerequisites that must occur to determine the abuse of law in VAT will be presented, as well as the obligations incumbent on tax authorities in the event of considering that there has been an abuse of law. Key rulings of the CJEU and national administrative courts will be presented, in which the clause prohibiting abuse of law has been applied as the legal basis.

The Personal Income Tax Act distinguishes among the sources of income, among others, non-agricultural business activity and lease, sublease, subtenancy, and other contracts of a similar nature (so-called private lease). A private lease may be taxed at a lump sum of 8.5%. The company is taxed according to forms appropriate for business activity.
