KSeF 2.0 went live February 2026. Authentication must be completed before a single invoice can be transmitted.

Access gate — clear this before anything can be filed

KSeF authentication, then a KSeF certificate

A legal entity authenticates with a qualified electronic seal containing the NIP, a qualified signature with the NIP, a Profil Zaufany, or a token. An entity without a qualified seal must file form ZAW-FA to designate one natural person to manage permissions. KSeF certificates are issued only to already-authenticated entities, are valid a maximum of two years, and one certificate serves one purpose — authentication or offline mode, never both.

Penalties

The Ministry of Finance has stated there will be no penalties for KSeF-related errors through 2026. Statutory amounts could not be verified from a primary source and are not stated.

What catches groups out in Poland

  • The penalty holiday expires at the end of 2026.
  • Transitional relief for taxpayers under PLN 10,000 monthly sales ends the moment that figure is exceeded in any month — with no reset.
  • One KSeF certificate serves one purpose. Groups that need both authentication and offline mode need two.
