The deadline for publishing the 2021 tax strategy for most taxpayers ends at the end of 2022.
Information on the implemented tax strategy should be published for 2021 by December 31, 2022 (or by the end of the twelfth month after the end of the tax year - for taxpayers with a tax year different from the calendar year) - on the taxpayer's website or, in the event that the taxpayer does not have its own website, on the website of a related entity.
Obligation to publish information on the implemented tax strategy
- On January 1, 2021, regulations came into force providing for the obligation to prepare and publish information on the tax strategy implemented in the previous fiscal year. This obligation was imposed on the largest business entities.

As a rule, if a company is included in the above list, this means that it is obligatory to publish information on tax strategy.
- The tax strategy should be published by the end of the 12th month following the completed fiscal year.
- I If the entity criteria are met, information on the implemented tax strategy for 2021 should be published on the website. In addition, the head of the relevant tax authority should also be notified of the address of the website where the information is published.
