    • @JoATTech
      @JoATTech 21 день назад +18

      Tax code changes in Poland so often, that accountants have problems keeping up with it.
      And last time when they changed it - called in "New Order" - we haven't known what is going to happen in next tax year when we were choosing tax scheme for that year ....
      Poland is really 2nd or 3rd world country in terms of taxes.

      ​@@ivanwronsky Not sure about English name. The most important thing is that no one asked me if I want that "New deal".
      The name does not matter, what matter is that rules of the game was not know to the last day of tax year.
      Actually I pay a bit less taxes now, but this "New deal" caused that my small business does not invest in itself as much as before (and in the market).
      Since I was forced to switch the tax scheme, to not pay more I'm not able anymore to deduct my company expenses. So I do not spent the same amount on new tech as before. This means the companies I've been spending money with do not have my money anymore. I guess the same thing is valid for 100k-1m small companies like mine. This caused some stagnation on the market for sure.
      The people who create tax schemes in Poland has not idea how companies work.
      So they are creating havoc with all their changes.

    There are more reasons to live in Poland: low crime rates, excellent infrastructure, and a dynamic job market. I can see many Polish families moving back from London/the UK to Poland because of the quality of life there.
    In fact, after twenty years in the UK, returning to Poland is quite a bit of a shock. The place looks more modern than the West right now - it's probably due to a complete lack of investment in the UK and other Western countries and massive infrastructure buildout in Poland.

    You didn't mention that:

    2. Poland has introduced a new vehicle named "fundacja rodzinna" which allows you to invest in securities (shares, bonds) and real estate without tax if you don't withdraw money from the vehicle (when you withdraw it's 15% tax only). There is no dividend or interest tax under this vehicle. It doesn't cost much to maintain this vehicle (1-3k euro per year).
    3. Most of the young people speak fluent English in Poland.
    4. There are 5 times fewer crimes in Poland than in Western European Countries.

    As a Polish person, tax heaven is the last thing I'd call my coutry. I think corporate tax rates are chill. Until you come into understanding of so call ''social taxes'', the heritage of the communist era social systems. Not only as an enterpreneur you have obligation of paying health, retirement, and 5 other taxes I can't name. The full entitlement work contract for a worker that makes 5000 euro gross, nets 3000 euros, I'd say a factual tax on that nears 40%. That's not a definition of a tax heaven in my understanding. That being said, Poland has many advantages for when it comes to high economic development rate.

    Poland is tax heaven for small businesses. LLCs pay 9% of CIT if their revenue is less than 2 million Euro.
    What's more, as a manager/CEO you may choose to be employed with Management Contract and not with standard Emplyment, and then you only pay 9% health insurance and no other social securities (retirement).
    Free from PIT is first 45k PLN. Then up to 120k you pay 12%, above that 32%
    Further more if you are a creative or programmer, you can be paid on Opus Contract (sorry can't find good translation) meaning that you are to provide specific piece of "art" like text, sculpture or a computer program, if you give away authorship rights then you can count 50% of contract amount as a "production cost" making PIT effectively 6%. From such contract there is no required health insurance!
    Now if you put that together, as a programmer you establish LLC, pay yourself as Opus Contract and your total taxes and socials can be as little as 6% of income😅

    As a sole trader you can pay 5,5% if its construction like brick laying, roofing etc, internal works in construction 8,5% tax... Sole traders need to pay social security and it's not like in other countries. If you earn nothing during the month you still need to pay around 700euros (have of it if you just beginnig your sole trade)
    If you earn more than 300000pln during the year you need to pay hidden tax around 6000pln it's called health insurance but it's just a hidden tax :)

    By the way, I used to watch your videos a few years ago when I was thinking of moving my tax residency elsewhere. But then the government here introduced a 5% income tax for folks selling the rights to their IP, which I do, and voila, they gave me the tax rate I was looking for without having to move 🎉

    Even better, Polish LLC can pay only 5% Corporate tax if you are selling IP. You personally can establish a Family trust and then pay 0% tax as long as the profits are reinvested. There is 15% tax on distributing money out of the trust

    Problems with Poland: weather is shit (May-October is nice, November-April is shit). Business culture is shit (maybe not in IT though). Capital gain tax is 19%. Road safety is terrible. Air is terrible in big cities (although this is slowly changing for the better). Half the population is very religious/conservative in not the best way.
    Politicians play fast and loose with the tax code. It can change at the very last moment and give you no time to prepare for the next year. People got addicted to welfare handouts and now every government is going to raise those (otherwise they don't win election). This means higher and higher taxes in coming years. It has good deals for small companies, especially if you are IP author but that's the only advantage. A lot of other countries offer similar or better deals anyway.
    Another problem is that it's close to Russia and borders Ukraine. There is non zero risk of things hitting the fan in coming years.

      Poland needs Ukraine to provide a buffer with Russia. Just common sense. It's easier to be friends if you keep distance :)

      yes, you´re right I agree on that, but that´s kind of politics the majority of the polish people doesn´t want to go to war with the russians, I have a lot of polish coworkers and families who live next to me in my place they just want to have their freedom, no war -like most of us- ;)

      Seriously. I meet a Polish fighter pilot in the US who was training with the Americans and he was severely anti Russian

    We Polish people have a new government . That is totaly germany, and european union dependent. We have new migrant policies. German police taking migrants by vans to Poland through borders. This country is heading on a wrong direction now.

    Love that you have to speak the language to be a citizen. Just imagine if the US implemented that, I could see non citizens and college students rioting. Well, they already are but this would be just another excuse to riot.

    There is no perfect country.But Poland remains standing because it does not succumb to the politically correct playbook.
