On September 29, the government adopted draft changes to the PIT scale and other taxes.
One of the elements of the changes is the extension of the tax relief for robotization. The preference is to be valid for the next 10 years, i.e. until 2036. Entrepreneurs will still be able to deduct up to 50% from the tax base. costs related to investments in robotization of production processes.

Greater relief for voluntary blood donors
The relief available to voluntary donors of blood and blood components is also to change. The government wants to double the value of the deduction.
Currently, when determining the amount of relief, the amount of PLN 130 per liter of donated blood or its components is used. After the change, while maintaining the current amount of compensation, the deduction would amount to PLN 260 per liter.

The government also proposes to repeal the regulations regarding the so-called expansion allowances.

over 130 thousand PLN up to PLN 150,000 PLN – rate 24%,
over 150 thousand PLN – rate 32%.
The tax-free amount is to remain at PLN 30,000. zloty. According to government estimates, approximately 3.5 million taxpayers will benefit from the changes, and the maximum annual benefit for a taxpayer will be PLN 3.6 thousand. zloty.
According to government calculations, the share of taxpayers paying tax at a rate of 32 percent. is expected to drop to 7.2%, compared to 14%. projected for 2027 under current rules.
Higher solidarity tax and CIT for the largest companies

CIT for the largest taxpayers is also to be higher. The rate will increase from 19 to 22 percent. for entities achieving annual revenues exceeding the equivalent of EUR 50 million and for tax capital groups. Banks are to be excluded from this change.
Lump sum: lower limit for entrepreneurs
The changes will also include a lump sum payment on recorded revenues. The income limit entitling to choose this form of taxation is to be reduced from EUR 2 million to EUR 250,000. euro. At the same time, the project provides for a rate of 17%. for surplus revenues over PLN 300,000 euros achieved during the year.
This means that in 2027, the lump sum will be available to taxpayers whose revenues in 2026 did not exceed PLN 250,000. euro. In turn, the higher rate is 17%. is to concern the surplus of over PLN 300,000. euro achieved during 2027.
When will the changes come into force?
