Strict Penalties for Exceeding Price Limits

Selling fuel above the limit published in the Official Gazette carries a penalty of up to 1 million złoty for stations.
Price Calculation Methodology
These rates are calculated daily using an algorithm that considers various factors.
Tax Shield Expires at the End of April
The currently relatively low price limits are a result of temporary tax relief measures.
Regulations reducing taxes are in effect until April 30, 2026.
Potential Price Surge in May
If the government does not decide to extend these solutions for another month, drivers can expect a sharp increase in fuel prices starting in May.
