In Brief
Polish tax authorities allow a deduction of up to PLN 150,000 for buying and converting a van into a camper. Amid flight cancellations, Poles increasingly choose motorhomes for holidays, with registrations doubling in five years.
The Polish tax authority (Dyrektor Krajowej Informacji Skarbowej) issued an individual interpretation allowing expenses for purchasing and converting a van into a camper to be included in professional costs. The tax deduction limit is PLN 150,000. For mixed use (personal and business), operating expenses are only 25% deductible.
Due to flight cancellations to the Middle East, Poles are revising holiday plans and increasingly opting for motorhomes. Renting a six-person camper in season costs about PLN 700 per day. The number of registered motorhomes in Poland has doubled over the past five years. Popular destinations include the Baltic coast, mountains, Podlasie, and Kashubia.
Motorhome owners must have compulsory third-party liability insurance (OC/AC). In 2025, the policy cost ranges from PLN 800 to 3,000, depending on driver experience and vehicle classification in the registration document (classification as a "special-purpose vehicle" usually lowers the rate). Voluntary insurance options include comprehensive coverage (casco), accident insurance, and assistance, with territorial coverage important when choosing.
