Tax residency: how to avoid falling into the trap of double taxation

When moving to Poland, many Ukrainians do not even suspect that they can automatically become tax residents of this country. This means that income received in both Poland and Ukraine may be subject to tax payment in Poland. To avoid problems with tax authorities, it is important to understand how to properly register or, conversely, avoid tax residency.

Who is considered a tax resident of Poland

A tax resident of Poland is considered a person who:

stays in Poland for more than 183 days during a calendar year;
has a center of vital interests (CVI) in Poland - that is, a family lives here, has a home, a business or a permanent place of work.
has a permanent or temporary residence status and receives regular income.

In some cases, a person may be considered a tax resident of two countries at once. Then an international agreement on the avoidance of double taxation comes into effect, which helps to decide where to pay taxes.

How to confirm or deny tax residency

To officially confirm or deny residency, documents are required. Most often these are:

a tax resident certificate from Ukraine or Poland;
registration of residence;
information on the duration of stay in the country;
information on sources of income.

Correct documentation will help avoid tax penalties and unwanted inspections.

When you need legal advice

Legal support is necessary in cases:

when you work remotely from Poland for a Ukrainian company;

if you have sources of income remaining in Ukraine;

when you plan a long-term stay in Poland, but do not want to automatically become a resident;

if you need a certificate of tax resident of Poland for a bank or other institutions.

A lawyer will help you determine your tax status, to issue the necessary documents, as well as to protect your interests before the tax authorities.

Conclusion

Tax residency is not just a formality, but a matter of financial security. If you live or work in Poland, do not postpone the consultation. Incorrect registration of the status can cost you dearly. Contact us - we will help you avoid risks and ensure tax stability.
