A tax refund is nothing more than a tax settlement that results in a refund of overpaid tax.

The tax paid by your employer may vary in amount. There are also cases where your employer does not have to pay tax at all. Therefore, sometimes the calculation may include a surcharge. The amount of tax paid and how it relates to your total income will have a significant impact on the amount of your refund.

It is not always possible to get back all the tax paid in a given tax year. Remember that every country wants you to pay as much tax as possible in that country, and each individual country has different tax laws. This means that all tax returns always require a customized approach.

By choosing a tax return that shows the expenses incurred and the tax credits (to which the taxpayer should be entitled), it is possible to get a significant tax refund or avoid the surcharge.

When filing your tax return, you will basically need: a tax card from your employer (income statement, PIT-11, which your employer must provide you by the end of February), correct number of your bank account and, also, proof of expenses incurred (for example invoices from your Internet Service Provider).

It is often not necessary to have a Polish bank account. However, keep in mind that the Polish Tax Office handles transfers in Polish currency (PLN). Also, if a transfer in a foreign currency is credited to your account (which is not PLN), your bank is likely to convert it at a rate that is disadvantageous to you. Therefore, you should consider whether it is better to use a Polish bank account for tax refund in Poland.

In many countries, filing tax returns is mandatory. Often, the law requires us to file a tax return by a specified deadline each year. In this way, we may avoid a penalty from a foreign tax authority caused by failure to file a tax return.

For example, a taxpayer with tax class 3 in Germany must file a tax return with the tax authorities by July 31.

In Poland, the annual return must be filed by April 30 of the year following the tax year. In 2024, we can file the return by April 30.

Every taxpayer's income is taxable, but not everyone has to meet the deadline set by the tax inspectorate. The absence of a tax liability is not an obstacle to the collection of tax from abroad. If calculations show that filing a tax return will result in a refund - it is worth settling.

Filing a return may also be mandatory in your case. Contact us to find out if you also need to file and settle with the tax office.

A decision is usually made within 3-6 months from the date the return is received by the tax office.

If PIT tax settelment are filed electronically - your tax return can be paid within maximum 45 days.

If PIT tax settelment are filed in hard copy form - your tax return can be paid within 3 months.

In Poland, you can quickly check the status of a filed tax return electronically. All you need to do is to log in to the electronic tax office and check whether the transfer has already been made.

For other countries that we calculate, it is most often necessary to contact the tax office by phone or in writing. If the calculation takes longer than expected - please contact us.
