Poland’s government has extended reduced VAT on petrol, diesel, and pure biocomponents until 30 June 2026 under its CPN fuel-relief programme, though concurrent excise tax cuts have already ended as of 16 June 2026 in a staged withdrawal from emergency price-support measures.
Poland’s government announced on 15 June 2026 that it has prolonged the reduced VAT rate on petrol, diesel, and pure biocomponents until 30 June 2026, maintaining relief measures introduced under its CPN programme aimed at stabilising fuel prices for consumers.
Officials have characterised the extension as provisional, reflecting volatile market conditions in the Middle East. The Finance and Economy Ministry confirmed the timeline in a recent decision, signalling that policymakers view this support as short-term rather than structural.
In a parallel shift, reduced excise tax rates on selected motor fuels ceased to apply as of today, 16 June 2026, marking the first step in the government’s gradual withdrawal from the broader fuel-support package.
Earlier, on 29 May 2026, Poland’s government prolonged its fuel pricing relief programme through 15 June 2026, continuing temporary cuts to VAT and excise duties on petrol, diesel, and biofuel components.
