PIT-37 – Annual Income Tax Return
The PIT-37 declaration for the previous year is submitted based on the PIT-11 form provided by your employer. In most cases, the employer is obligated to issue the PIT-11 to the foreign employee by the end of February of the current year. This document includes information about the employee’s annual income.
Regardless of how many employers you have had, you must collect a PIT-11 from each and combine them into a single PIT-37 declaration. PIT-37 is the annual income tax return that must be submitted to the Urzad Skarbowy (Tax Office) corresponding to your place of residence. The PIT-37 must be filed between February 15 and April 30 of the year following the income year.
