Entrepreneurs Can No Longer Wait.

Entrepreneurs can no longer wait. This discussion about the health contribution has been going on for a very long time, too long, and I am convinced that at the next government meeting, decisions will be made regarding a lower health contribution in 2025, but also in 2026 – stated Andrzej Domański in the program "Jeden na jeden" on TVN24.

We took the first step, and that first step was to abandon the health contribution on fixed assets. Now it's time for the next steps. This second step will be to lower the minimum health contribution, which is currently paid on a base of 100% of the minimum wage. We will lower this to 75% – he continued.

This will be the second step, affecting approximately one million of the smallest entrepreneurs who have really low incomes. Very importantly, it will also affect those entrepreneurs who do not generate income, as such situations also occur. We want this to be effective from January 1, 2025. The project is ready, and we want it to pass through the Sejm as quickly as possible – added the Minister of Finance.

The government is expected to adopt an amendment at its Tuesday session.
