Maximum fuel prices from 24 to 26 October 2026
| Fuel | Cap excluding VAT, PLN/l | Cap including VAT, PLN/l |
|---|---|---|
| Pb95 petrol | 6.02 | 6.51 |
| Pb98 petrol | 6.67 | 7.21 |
| Diesel | 7.40 | 7.99 |
Both columns reproduce the amounts in the original notice, item 1034 (PDF). The gross caps include 8% VAT. The Ministry of Energy's announcement confirms the three-day period and nationwide application. Stations may charge less.
The same announcement explains why Monday is covered: a price announced on the last working day before a weekend applies up to and including the next working day. These caps therefore cover 24, 25 and 26 October under one notice.
What changes from Friday, 23 October?
Against Friday's VAT-inclusive caps, the changes per litre are:
- Pb95: -0.05 PLN, from 6.56 to 6.51 PLN/l.
- Pb98: -0.07 PLN, from 7.28 to 7.21 PLN/l.
- Diesel: 0.00 PLN, unchanged at 7.99 PLN/l.
The comparison uses notices 1029 and 1034. Both petrol caps fall for the eighth consecutive notice, starting with the amounts effective on 15 October. They reach their lowest levels in this October edition.
