How to Access the National e-Invoice System (KSeF)

  • The KSeF (Krajowy System e-Faktur) is a national e-invoice system in Poland.
  • Users can log in to the KSeF using a Trusted Profile, qualified electronic signature, or qualified electronic seal.
  • The Ministry of Finance and the National Revenue Administration are organizing online meetings to introduce the main principles of KSeF to micro-enterprises.
  • E-invoices are currently allowed alongside paper invoices and existing electronic invoices, but mandatory use of structured invoices in KSeF will begin on July 1, 2024.
  • VAT-exempt businesses will be required to use KSeF from January 1, 2025.
  • The system has been available as an optional solution since the beginning of 2022.
  • Users can connect to KSeF through integrated financial-accounting software or free tools provided by the Ministry of Finance.
  • Different login methods apply for individuals and companies using the KSeF Taxpayer Application or commercial applications.
  • Individuals can use a Trusted Profile or qualified electronic signature without notifying the tax office.
  • Companies with a qualified electronic seal containing a tax identification number (NIP) can also use KSeF without notifying the tax office.
  • If a company does not have a qualified electronic seal, they must designate an authorized individual through a notification to the tax office.
  • The authorized individual can then grant themselves permissions for issuing and accessing invoices and can grant further permissions electronically within the system.
  • The e-microfirma application in the e-Urzad Skarbowy will facilitate the use of KSeF for individuals running a sole proprietorship.
