Price regulation package
The announcement of maximum prices is part of the third stage of the “Lower Fuel Prices” package. Its purpose is to curb rising fuel prices at petrol stations and reduce drivers’ refuelling costs.
Failure to comply with the established prices may result in a fine of up to 1 million zlotys. The mechanism began operating after part of the provisions of the law on the windfall profits tax on fuel companies entered into force. The president signed this law and simultaneously referred it to the Constitutional Tribunal for further review.
