PCC‑2 is a less common PCC form. It is used in specific cases provided by law, while PCC‑3 remains the most typical declaration. Below we explain when PCC‑2 applies and how to approach filing safely.

When PCC‑2 is used

PCC‑2 appears in situations where the law provides a different settlement method or a different filing party. In practice this concerns selected civil‑law transactions and specific configurations of parties.

PCC‑2 and notarial transactions

When a transaction is performed in a notarial deed form, PCC is settled differently — the payer is often the notary. In such cases the notary collects the tax and files the relevant declaration, and the taxpayer does not file PCC‑3. This is a typical situation where PCC‑2 applies.

PCC‑2 vs PCC‑3 — the practical difference

  • PCC‑3 is the standard form for most transactions.
  • PCC‑2 is used exceptionally when the regulations explicitly require it.

If you are unsure whether your case requires PCC‑2, start with PCC‑3 — when and how to file.

When PCC‑2 does not apply

If you conclude a regular sale or loan contract outside the notarial deed form, in practice you file PCC‑3. PCC‑2 appears when the legislator clearly shifts obligations to another party (e.g., a payer).

Who files PCC‑2 and who pays

The party filing PCC‑2 can be different from the taxpayer. In practice this means you do not always file yourself, even if you bear the tax burden. Most commonly this is the case with notarial transactions. Put simply: PCC‑2 is filed by the payer (e.g., a notary), not the taxpayer.

Who files PCC‑2

The filing party depends on the type of transaction. It is always worth verifying who is the taxpayer in a given situation. General rules are described in PCC tax — basics.

Deadline and filing method

Typically the 14‑day deadline applies from the date the obligation arises. The declaration can be filed electronically or on paper, depending on the tax office’s available channels.

Competent office and attachments

The declaration is filed with the competent tax office according to PCC rules. In some cases additional information about the parties or the subject of the transaction is required — then attachments may appear. If your case is complex (e.g., multiple taxpayers), check the requirements before filing.

Examples of situations where PCC‑2 appears

  • real‑estate sale in the form of a notarial deed, where the notary acts as the payer,
  • transactions where the law indicates another entity settles PCC,
  • cases where the taxpayer does not file the standard PCC‑3.

This is not exhaustive but shows typical practical situations.

When PCC‑2 is unlikely

If you conclude a standard sale or loan agreement outside a notarial deed, you will generally file PCC‑3. PCC‑2 is the exception and appears when regulations transfer obligations to the payer.

What to prepare before a notary visit

  • data of the parties to the transaction,
  • market value of the subject of the agreement,
  • the method of transferring ownership,
  • documents confirming the right to dispose of the asset.

Most common mistakes

  • confusing PCC‑2 with PCC‑3,
  • not verifying who the taxpayer is,
  • filing late.
