Polish tax authorities confirm that direct transfers to a recipient’s technical account may still incur gift taxes.
Latest Tax Interpretation
The tax authority does not back down in many matters, as evidenced by the latest interpretation of the Director of the National Tax Information Office from February 20, 2026 (sign. 0111-KDIB2-3.4015.459.2025.1.BD).
Direct Transfer Complications
The interpretation confirms that authorities demand taxes when a gift payment is made directly to the technical account of the recipient. Payments are also made in bank branches, which can also cause problems. For years, donors have been in disputes with the tax authority on this topic.
Taxpayer’s Sub-account
Special financial arrangements like sub-accounts may be impacted by these tax regulations.
