How to obtain a certificate of no arrears from US?

«Zaświadczenie o niezaleganiu w podatkach» is an official document of the Polish tax authorities confirming that the designated person does not have a debt to the budget due to tax deductions.

At the request of the applicant, the certificate may also contain data:

  • On debt determination proceedings;
  • Information about pending enforcement proceedings;
  • Information on outstanding debts and the reasons for them;
  • Information about deferred or instalment taxes.

You can apply for this certificate at any time you need it.

You can make the application in person or by an authorised representative with a power of attorney. You must apply for the certificate at the tax office where you are registered or where your company is registered as a legal entity.

You can make the application in two ways:

  • By submitting a paper application in person at the tax office.
  • By submitting the application electronically at biznes.gov.pl via a personal office using a trusted profile («Profil zaufany»).

Applications submitted in paper form or via the «Profilu zaufanego» require payment of a stamp duty of PLN 21.

Proof of payment can be provided in the form of a bank confirmation. The obligation to pay stamp duty arises at the time of submitting the application for a certificate, i.e. it does not depend on the ruling issued.

The deadline for processing and responding to the application is 7 working days from the date of submission.
