Success story

How we brought a protracted, cross-border legal dispute to a mutually agreeable happy ending

After a long-running cross-border dispute over damages between a German company and its Polish contractor, interrupted by COVID-19 restrictions and further complicated by the insolvency of both the claimant and the defendant, we successfully secured payment of PLN 500,000 from the insurer. The case was extremely complex in both substantive and procedural terms. The client was wary of the lengthy proceedings but ultimately satisfied with the outcome and the fact that neither an appeal nor, most likely, proceedings before the Supreme Court were necessary.

Effective VAT Compliance for German E-Commerce Companies Relocating Warehouses to Poland

In recent years, an increasing number of German e-commerce companies have decided to relocate their logistics centers to Poland. Lower operating costs, a favourable geographic location, and well-developed warehouse infrastructure make this a natural step in the growth of online retail businesses. However, this change also brings new obligations in terms of VAT compliance—both in Poland and in cross-border relations with Germany.

Import of Goods over 150 EUR Directly into Poland – Obligations for German Companies

In recent years, more and more German e-commerce companies have decided to sell goods to Polish consumers. Poland is a dynamically growing market, and shorter delivery times as well as lower logistics costs encourage businesses to organize distribution directly from Poland. As a result, many companies import goods from China or other non-EU countries directly into Poland and then sell them on the Polish retail market.
