Longer adjustment period for tax law changes

The bill introduces a rule that unfavorable changes to tax laws will take effect no earlier than 6 months after publication. This gives taxpayers, businesses and other entities more time to prepare for new obligations. Exceptions are only possible for important public interest or implementation of EU law.
Key points
6-month adjustment period: unfavorable tax changes will take effect at least half a year after the law is published
Greater predictability: businesses and taxpayers gain time to adjust accounting systems, financial plans and procedures
Two exceptions to the rule: shorter deadlines possible only for important public interest or EU law implementation – always with justification required
Protection against surprises: changes increasing burdens, limiting rights or altering tax rules receive special protection
The law enters into force on January 1, 2026 and does not apply to bills already submitted to Parliament
