Poland B2B: Line-Level Tax Information

You must use the required values to specify tax categories in the line level.

The Polish KSeF platform has its own defined set of tax categories. The final XML format requires specific tax-related tags to be filled based on the tax percentage and use case. These tax elements are translated into tax category codes in VRBL.

General information about how to model line-level tax information is provided in the Line-Level Tax Information topic.

Document-level tax information is explained in the Poland B2B: Tax Category topic.
