Costs from related parties will not be allowed as tax costs. This will happen when these costs meet the statutory definition of the so-called “hidden dividend”. The Polish New Deal introduces so far unknown concept of “hidden dividend”. The act in art.16 sec. 1d indicates that certain costs constitute a “hidden dividend” if:
the amount or timing of those costs is in any way dependent on the taxpayer making a profit or on the amount of that profit; or
a prudent taxable person would not incur such costs or could incur lower costs in the case of comparable supplies performed by a person not connected, within the meaning of Article 11a(1)(3), with the taxable person, whereby in determining those costs the provisions of Articles 11c and 11d shall apply mutatis mutandis, or
these costs include remuneration for the right to use assets which were owned or co-owned by a partner (shareholder) or an entity related to a partner (shareholder) before the creation of the taxpayer.
The provisions being introduced aim to end the practice of extracting profits from companies. However, if an entity makes a gross profit and the costs associated with transactions with related parties do not exceed its value, the provisions will not apply.

KG LEGAL KIELTYKA GLADKOWSKI has launched a new programme of accelerating international capabilities of our law firm. As a separate branch named iSTART1 (https://www.istart1.com), based in the Lower Manhattan at One World Trade Center, 85th Floor, New York, NY 10007, USA, we have differentiated our aim to develop our international legal assistance in two fields. There are two groups of our global services related therewith: on the one hand, there is transaction advisory assistance (we advise on the content of contracts, how to secure payments and the rules of international acquisition and merger of companies); and on the other hand, we offer investment advisory services. We promote cooperation between start ups and venture partners and assist in serving their transactions. These two types of services have one common goal in the form of acceleration of business (this is always the primary goal of our services).
In January 2022 there have entered into force the provisions of the Polish law on special rules for the remuneration of persons performing tasks in the field of cyber security, which, among other things, provide for the creation of the Polish Cyber Security Fund, which will be used to finance salary supplements for persons engaged in cyber security.
