Poland Slashes Fuel VAT to 8% Amid Soaring Oil Prices and Inflation Concerns

  • Poland will temporarily cut fuel VAT from 21% to 8% from April 6 to April 30, 2026, to combat inflation from rising oil prices and the Iran conflict.
  • Fuel duties will also be reduced to the EU minimum.
  • Oil prices have exceeded $100 per barrel, increasing fuel costs across the EU.
  • The government may consider further measures, including windfall taxes on energy companies, if prices keep rising.
  • Previous consumer protections include fuel price caps, margin restrictions, and discounts via state-linked energy firms.
