This is how much drivers will pay for fuel before Easter. Experts included CPN
If the CPN package is quickly accepted by the president, fuel prices at stations will drop before Christmas. The popular “95” may drop below PLN 6/l.
On Friday, parliamentarians adopted projects amending the Act on stocks of crude oil, petroleum products and natural gas and the rules of conduct in situations of threat to the state’s fuel security and disruptions on the oil market, as well as changes to the Excise Duty Act. Their fate will now be decided by President Karol Nawrocki.
The package called “Fuel Prices Lower” (CPN) includes, among others: reduction of the VAT rate on fuels from 23%. up to 8 percent and a reduction of excise duty to the minimum EU levels (by PLN 29/l for petrol and PLN 28/l for diesel). Additionally, a maximum retail price of fuel will be introduced, valid for three months – until June 30, which is expected to reduce prices at stations by approximately PLN 1.20/l.
The maximum price will be set daily by the Minister of Energy based on the average wholesale prices of the five largest entities, plus the margin and VAT. The mechanism is intended to reduce speculation and increase market transparency, without interfering with wholesale prices. The National Audit Office will supervise its compliance, with fines of up to PLN 1 million for violations.

How much will drivers actually pay for fuel now? e-petrol.pl experts indicate that if – as everything indicates – the president quickly accepts the package, significantly lower prices at gas stations would appear next week, i.e. just before Easter.
– In the pre-Christmas period from March 30 to April 5, 2026, assuming the entry into force of the CPN package, Pb98 gasoline prices are forecast to range from PLN 6.59 to PLN 6.79 per liter, while the most popular fuel for passenger cars – E10 (Pb95) may cost from PLN 5.99 to PLN 6.19/l. Diesel oil could be sold at prices ranging from PLN 7.39 to PLN 7.60/l, while the price of autogas would most often range from PLN 3.73 to PLN 3.86/l (previous information on CPN did not include this fuel) – analysts calculate.
