 Although the Real Estate Tax Act in Poland is not very long or complicated, in practice it raises many issues both for taxpayers and tax authorities. The main reason for this is the numerous references to other legal acts, which reflect various government policies that are not explicitly related to taxation. The most problematic are the definitions of buildings and structures, which refer to the Construction Law and are critical for the correct determination of the real estate tax. As a result, real estate tax cases account for approximately 20% of disputes with tax authorities before administrative courts in 2022. Consequently, taxpayers must consider many decisions of administrative courts to correctly calculate real estate tax. Recently, the Polish Constitutional Court issued a landmark decision calling on the Polish Parliament to adopt the definition of a structure that could simplify the determination of real estate tax.
