  • R&D tax relief

    The R&D tax relief was introduced by the legislature in 2016, but since then it has gained significantly in attractiveness – the amount of maximum deductions under the credit currently reaches 200% for employee expenses and 100% for other expenses. The catalog of expenses eligible for deduction under the relief has also been expanded over the years, which has also increased its popularity.

    The relief consists of the possibility of “double” deduction from the tax base of expenses incurred for R&D activities (so-called qualified expenses) – the first time a taxpayer does this is when the expenses are included in deductible expenses under the general rules, and then a second time the same expenses can be deducted from the tax base in the annual return.

      Judgment of the Supreme Administrative Court, ref. no. I FSK 1816/20

      The court objected to the very common approach among the tax authorities, but also often among the courts, of attributing an implicit awareness of participation in a fraud by pointing out that the evidence on the record did not show that such awareness existed. The court ordered that very precise criteria be taken into account that would make such awareness of fraud plausible.
