Vehicle rental for transport: new rules and inspections

The act introduces the possibility of renting foreign vehicles for goods transport in Poland, but with time limits. Transport companies must comply with new deadlines and present rental contracts. Stricter penalties for cabotage violations also appear, as well as joint inspections by police, tax authorities, and transport inspectors.
Key points
Polish companies can rent EU or EFTA vehicles for up to 3 consecutive months per year for commercial transport and 2 consecutive months for non-commercial – they must register this and show the rental agreement.
A fine of PLN 5,000 applies for illegal vehicle rental or rule violations.
A joint cabotage control strategy is created: police, tax authorities, and transport inspectors will coordinate actions every two years.
The amount specified in Art. 92a sec. 2 of the act is reduced from PLN 200 to PLN 50.
Foreign EU or EFTA companies can use rented vehicles or Polish-registered cars in Poland if they meet driver and contract conditions.
