Poland – SAF-T files for July – December 2021

On July 1, on the website podatki.gov.pl there were published explanations of the Ministry of Finance on the technical aspects of filling SAF-T files for July – December 2021 due to the modification of the content of the monthly SAF-T file.

According to these explanations the new version of SAF-T scheme will be published and will be applicable since the settlement for January 2022. The SAF-T files for July – December 2021 should be prepared using the old version of the scheme but which should be filled in using the new rules. It means that for instance the box MPP should be left empty and the GTU codes should be marked according to the new, more detailed descriptions.

The Ministry of Finance justifies such approach with the desire to reduce the number of changes that taxpayers would have to introduce in their IT systems.
