Who needs to file a PIT-38?
The PIT-38 form concerns all persons who in 2024 achieved income from so-called cash capital. These include profits from the sale of shares, bonds, shares, investment funds or cryptocurrency. The clearing obligation applies to both individual investors and those who sold financial instruments outside the brokerage account. It is worth remembering that since 2024 we have also settled profits from investment funds on our own – the financial institution no longer does.
