Analysis of the provisions of the Act on Personal Income Tax which have been implemented or amended under the influence of European Union law

The author analyses the provisions concerning the taxation of natural persons, pointing out that in the current state of the law the provisions shaped under the influence of EU law include, inter alia, the provisions regulating the taxation of income of spouses and single parents, income from winnings, certain income from cash capitals, as well as the possibility to deduct social security contributions from the tax base, or the definition of employee pension schemes. The author emphasises that although the structural elements of this tax are not, in principle, harmonised under EU law, each of the Act’s provisions may be assessed in the light of the Treaty provisions, primarily those relating to the common market, freedom of economic activity, movement of capital, services, persons, non-discrimination, state aid
