Poland was authorised, until 31 December 2016, to limit to 50 % the right to deduct VAT on the purchase, intra-Community acquisition, importation, hire, or leasing of certain motorised road vehicles and expenditure related thereto where such vehicle is not entirely used for business purposes, and to relieve the taxable person from accounting for VAT on the non-business use of vehicles covered by the restriction (the ‘derogating measures'). Poland is authorised to continue to apply the derogating measures until 31 December 2019.
