Ocena systemu podatkowego w opinii przedsiębiorców z województwa podkarpackiego
Evaluation of tax system by the entrepreneurs from the Podkarpackie Voivodeship (Poland)

Summary/Abstract: Poland is a country with the most volatile and unpredictable legal system of almost all member states of the European Union. Over the past 16 years, i.e. since Poland’s accession to the EU, nearly 21,000 pages of laws and ordinances are approved on average per year. While the total number of changes in regulations since 2017 has been slightly falling, there is a growing trend in tax issues. The revolution of the tax system has brought not only a significant tightening of regulations, but also reporting requirements, which hinders doing business. SAF-T, transfer prices, split payment, white list, STIR, or MDR, these are some of the concepts which entrepreneurs recently had to become familiar with. The aim of the article is to evaluate the tax system. The paper presents in a synthetic way the legislative activities of tax authorities taken to close the tax gap in Poland. The basic research method is a questionnaire survey conducted among entrepreneurs from the Podkarpackie Voivodeship and an analysis of the literature in this area. The conducted research indicates the instability and significant reduction in the transparency of tax regulations and also the burden on entrepreneurs with many additional activities aimed at fighting the government administration with the shadow economy in Poland.
