Fuel surcharge rate applicable to the Domestic Pallet Shipment service
in the period from December 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025: 28%
The fuel surcharge is a tool that allows for adjustments to the fees for providing the Domestic Pallet Shipment service depending on changes in market fuel prices – as a component of transportation costs. To ensure long-term predictability of transportation costs for customers cooperating with Poczta Polska in the area of logistics services, a minimum fuel surcharge of 28% will be introduced from November 1, 2024, until further notice .
The base price used to calculate the fuel correction index is the average wholesale price
of ON Ekodiesel from January 2005, which was PLN 2,456.61.
The fuel surcharge is effective from the beginning of the month following the month in which the average wholesale price of ON Ekodiesel diesel fuel (based on data from Polski Koncern Naftowy ORLEN SA) changes by 4% (or a multiple of 4%) compared to the base price. In such a case, fees for the KPP service are adjusted by 1% (or a multiple of 1%) compared to the base price. The fuel surcharge is settled monthly and calculated based on the date the transport order is placed. The fuel surcharge for the Domestic Pallet Shipment service is added to the basic net price for the shipment.
Poczta Polska SA reserves the right to change the calculation methodology and the fuel surcharge rate, depending on changes in the fuel market, including wholesale prices of ON Ekodiesel published on the website of Polski Koncern Naftowy Orlen SA

The road toll expressed as a net value is subject to an increase of 23% VAT.
