Polish tax rulings on family foundations
Overview
Polish tax authorities have issued interpretations that impact how family foundations manage assets and property.
In one ruling, the Director of the National Revenue Administration determined that while receiving debt via donation is tax-neutral, the subsequent recovery of principal and interest may be subject to a 25 percent punitive Corporate Income Tax rate. This contradicts arguments that such activities constitute standard asset management.
In a separate ruling from Katowice, authorities determined that a family foundation must pay the highest real estate tax rate for an entire residential building if it is used as a registered office for a management board. Citing a Supreme Administrative Court resolution, the ruling specifies that lower residential tax rates only apply to parts of a property actually used for residential needs, rather than for business activities.
