Common questions
What happens if I operate without a license?
A fine up to PLN 50,000, plus confiscation of the fuel — this is a real, enforced penalty, not a formality.
Do foreign importers need special registration?
Yes — foreign entities importing liquid fuels into Poland must register with URE's Importers Register specifically.
