If the company should have entered the report into the National database for the previous year and the deadline of the end of February has already passed, the first rule is simple: <strong>report still to be submitted<\/strong>. Official announcements from the KOBiZE remind of the obligation and the deadline, but from a practical point of view, missing the deadline does not mean that the topic \u201ecloses itself\u201d. On the contrary, the longer the report remains undelivered, the greater the mess in the company's entire emissions documentation and the more difficult it is later to coherently link the data with other environmental obligations. Therefore, a report after the deadline does not become a report submitted on time, but its subsequent introduction is still necessary if the company is indeed subject to the NOBIZE obligation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can a KOBiZE report be submitted after the deadline?<br><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140.png 1024w, https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/ekopro-grupa.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-140-12x12.png 12w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practice, yes - and this is exactly what should be done once the deadline has passed. Official communications from the KOBiZE indicate the end-February deadline as the date by which the report is to be entered into the system, but do not suggest that after this date the report ceases to be compilable. The most important thing from the entrepreneur's point of view is that being late does not remove the obligation. If the company has had emission sources and should report, the report must also be prepared after the deadline. In practice, putting it off \u201ebecause it's past the deadline anyway\u201d only makes the situation worse, as it makes it difficult to reconstruct fuel, technical and emission data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What does submitting a report after the deadline do and what does it not do?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequent reporting primarily <strong>puts the formalities in order for the future<\/strong>. This is very important, because the data from the KOBiZE report is in practice the reference point for further emission settlements, especially for environmental charges. If a company leaves a report uncompleted, the problem does not end with the KOBiZE itself - it moves on to further obligations and to the entire coherence of environmental documentation. However, it must be said in all honesty that submitting the report after the deadline does not mean that the obligation has been fulfilled on time. The official communication from the KOBiZE sets a clear deadline of the end of February, so the subsequent action is a rectification of the formal status, not a reversal of the earlier failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What are the risks associated with a KOBiZE report after the deadline?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is safest to be straightforward about it: the official KOBiZE reminders for 2026 clearly indicate the reporting deadline, but I have not found an up-to-date official KOBiZE communication that, for a simple annual report to the National Base for 2025, indicates a single, straightforward and automatically calculated monetary sanction for lateness alone. However, this does not mean that the topic is indifferent. Failure to report on time increases the risk of problems when auditing, when verifying other environmental obligations and when there are discrepancies between the KOBiZE and the list to the marshal. From the company's point of view, this is reason enough not to leave the report without action: the absence of one simple \u201eoff the price list\u201d sanction does not mean there is no compliance risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What to do step by step after missing the deadline?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most sensible path is simple. First, determine whether the company was actually subject to the obligation for the year in question. Then collect data on emission sources, fuels used and technological processes as soon as possible, log on to the National Database system and enter the report despite the missed deadline. At the same time, it is worth checking whether the delay in the NOBiZE does not cause discrepancies in other environmental documents, especially in the settlement of environmental charges. In practice, a report after the deadline should be treated not as a \u201elast technical obligation\u201d, but as an element of a quick tidying up of the whole area of emissions in the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Frequently asked questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list\">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1774872574412\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\"><strong>By when did you have to submit the KOBiZE report for 2025?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n\n<p>To <strong>end of February 2026.<\/strong>.
