Age & Emissions Requirements

• Passenger Cars: Must comply with EU emissions standards (usually Euro 5 or Euro 6 for recent imports).

• Older vehicles may face higher taxes or restrictions if they fail to meet EU regulations.

• Classic or collector vehicles (30+ years old) may qualify for exemptions but require special approval and may be subject to additional duties.

Prohibited Vehicle Types

• Right-Hand Drive Vehicles: Not permitted for registration in Poland. Only left-hand drive vehicles are accepted.

• Severely Damaged, Salvage, or Rebuilt Vehicles: Restricted and may be denied entry unless properly documented.

⚠️ Note: As part of the European Union, Poland applies import duties and taxes based on vehicle value, engine size, age, and emissions compliance. Importing newer, fuel-efficient, and eco-friendly cars is generally more cost-effective.

Poland, as a member of the European Union, enforces strict customs regulations to protect public safety, health, and the environment. Items that are prohibited or heavily restricted include:

❌ Unlicensed firearms, ammunition, and explosives
❌ Illegal drugs and narcotics
❌ Hazardous chemicals, toxic waste, and radioactive materials
❌ Counterfeit goods, pirated media, and fake currency
❌ Pornographic or obscene materials

🌱 Plants, seeds, animals, and agricultural products may only be imported with official phytosanitary or veterinary certificates, in compliance with EU agricultural and biosecurity standards.

⚠️ Note: Shipments containing prohibited items may be confiscated by Polish customs, and importers may face penalties, fines, or legal action.
