„TP” attribute – transactions with affiliated units
We kindly remind you that along with the release of a new JPK_VAT file, apart from GTU markings, it’s also required that every purchase and sales invoice is marked with a special attribute.
The most vital thing from the perspective of correct marking is the „TP” attribute – transactions with affiliated units. The authorities will demand that JPK files contain correct markings both from the perspective of a seller and a buyer.
Explanation for TP symbol:
