The Polish government aims to complete work on a digital tax by the end of the year, despite threats by U.S. President Donald Trump against countries with such a tax.
“Work is currently underway to prepare the draft bill, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2025,” a spokesperson for the Polish Digital Ministry said in written remarks shared with POLITICO when asked about Trump’s comments.
On Monday, Trump threatened to impose tariffs on countries with a digital tax.
Digital taxes are “designed to harm, or discriminate against, American Technology,” Trump said in a post on his social network, Truth Social.
However, the ministry said in the remarks, the Polish digital tax would not be “aimed at entities from any specific country.”
“It is intended to apply to all relevant market participants.”
