The article was devoted to the institution of transitional lump-sum income tax introduced by the act on the so-called Polish Deal (Polski Ład). As demonstrated, it actually meets the criteria of tax amnesty and at the same time raises serious doubts as to its compliance with the constitutional principles of equality (Article 32 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland) and universality of taxation (Article 84 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland). The publication presents the tax amnesty institution itself, its essence and historical outline as well as the normative construction of transitional lump-sum income tax. The compliance of the provisions normalising the institution of the transitional lump-sum income tax was also analysed along with the indicated provisions of the fundamental law.

The article investigates the legal framework for tax privileges within the Polish income tax regulations in light of principle of fair taxation (fiscal justice). The paper begins with an overview of fiscal justice and different categories of privileges (tax relief, tax exemption, etc.). In the next section, the author addresses the question of relation between these privileges and the principle of fair taxation. The final part of the article focuses on assessment of detailed regulation related to fiscal justice. The author argues that the current system of tax privileges in general complies with the requirements of fair taxation, however there is a need to introduce some changes.

Encumbrance of personal income is the basic field of discussion that focuses around the dilemma of linear vs. progressive tax. With nominally progressive rates, the personal income tax, together with social and health insurance premiums (so-called tax wedge), resembles a linear distrib ution with an evident maximum in the mid-range income. The amount of the encumbrance is primarily dependent on the source of income, running one’s own business clearly outstanding against the hired/wage work, particularly in its Labour Code forms of employment. Such a situation triggers fundamental doubts related to the postulates of equality and equity of taxation-not to be dispelled by the impending ‘Polish Order ’ change.

Obciążenia dochodów osobistych są zasadniczym polem dyskusji na temat postulatów równości i sprawiedliwości opodatkowania. Dyskusja ta ogniskuje się wokół dylematu podatku liniowego albo progresywnego. Mimo nominalnie progresywnych stawek – podatek dochodowy od osób fizycznych wraz ze składkami na ubezpieczenia społeczne i zdrowotne (tzw. klin podatkowy) są zbliżone do rozkładu liniowego z wyraźnym maksimum w środkowych przedziałach rozpiętości dochodów. Wysokość obciążeń zależy przede wszystkim od źródła przychodu – rysuje się wyraźne uprzywilejowanie działalności gospodarczej względem pracy najemnej, zwłaszcza w kodeksowych formach zatrudnienia. Sytuacja ta rodzi istotne wątpliwości z perspektywy postulatów równości i sprawiedliwości opodatkowania, a nie rozwiewają ich planowane zmiany w ramach tzw. Polskiego Ładu.
