- Changes introduced to the project of amending the Packaging and Packaging Waste Management Act also include changes in VAT taxation on deposits for bottles and cans
- According to experts, the change in the scope of exempting VAT on deposits collected for the sale of beverages is beneficial
- The regulation states that deposits collected for any type of packaging covered by the deposit system will not be subject to VAT
- However, the amendment also introduces uncertainties, especially regarding the tax on unrecovered packaging
- Producers will calculate and declare this tax annually, while operators will collect and pay it by the end of January of the following year
- The lack of clarity on how operators and producers will cooperate in the joint settlement is a concern, as well as the absence of information on how to include such settlement in the JPK
