Date note: 6 months from the amended KSC's entry into force on 2026-04-03; this deadline was extended from an originally proposed 3 months during the Sejm's second reading. Entities that qualify later must still register within 6 months of first meeting the criteria - an ongoing rule, not only a one-off deadline for this initial batch.
