Poland abolishes tolls for passenger cars with caravans
Original source: Interia Wydarzenia

In Brief

Polish Sejm passed a law exempting passenger cars and light vans towing caravans or trailers from national road tolls. Previously, fees applied when total weight exceeded 3.5 tonnes. The bill now goes to the Senate.

The Polish Sejm has adopted amendments to the e-TOLL system, scrapping toll calculations based on the total permissible maximum weight of a vehicle combination. Instead, the key criterion will be the weight of the towing vehicle alone, with a threshold of 3.5 tonnes. This will exempt drivers of pickups, motorhomes and passenger cars with trailers from e-TOLL payments, even if the combined weight exceeds 3.5 tonnes.

The bill has been sent to the Senate and awaits the president's signature. The changes are expected to take effect before the summer holidays.

Poland proposes to abolish e-TOLL for motorhomes and caravans

A bill has been submitted to the Polish Sejm to amend the Public Roads Act, proposing to exempt motorhomes (over 3.5 t GVW) and passenger cars towing caravans from the e-TOLL system when used for individual tourism. Currently, such vehicles are treated as trucks and charged between PLN 0.34 and 0.80 per kilometer. The bill still needs to pass through the full legislative process, leaving little time before the 2026 summer holidays.

Poland abolishes e-TOLL road toll for passenger cars with trailers from September 21, 2026

Polish President Karol Nawrocki signed an amendment to the Public Roads Act, exempting passenger cars with trailers from registration in the e-TOLL system and payment of road tolls. The change takes effect on September 21, 2026. Previously, the toll applied if the combined permissible mass of the vehicle combination exceeded 3.5 tonnes. Now the decisive factor is the permissible mass of the towing vehicle: if it is up to 3.5 tonnes, no toll is charged regardless of the trailer's mass. The fine of 500 zloty for such vehicles is abolished, and pending administrative proceedings are discontinued. Funds on e-TOLL prepaid accounts can be refunded upon request within six months. The change does not affect toll sections of the A1, A2 and A4 motorways.
