How to send a general letter to the tax office (Pismo ogólne do Urzędu Skarbowego)

Pismo ogólne do Urzędu Skarbowego

This is a general type of letter sent to the Polish tax office (Urząd Skarbowy) when there's no dedicated form for your request, statement, or explanation.

You can use it for:

  • requesting information
  • explaining a situation (e.g. reasons for a late tax return filing)
  • clarifying tax obligations
  • attaching documents
  • notifications (e.g. about an error in your tax return)
  • questions or requests not covered by standard forms

How to send it via the e-Urząd Skarbowy platform
