The EU AI Act in Poland
The Act applies in Poland as Union law.
Drafted with AI help and checked against the official EU text before publishing.
The Act applies in Poland as Union law. The Act of 3 July 2026 on AI systems (Dz.U. 2026 poz. 1003) names the Komisja Rozwoju i Bezpieczeństwa Sztucznej Inteligencji as the market-surveillance authority and single point of contact. Literacy and transparency dates remain the Union dates.
A Polish statute cannot weaken it or exempt you from it, though Poland can add extra national rules on top.
Poland has named the Komisja Rozwoju i Bezpieczeństwa Sztucznej Inteligencji as the market-surveillance authority and the Union single point of contact (Act of 3 July 2026, Dz.U. 2026 poz. 1003). That name is on the European Commission's contact list (last updated 7 September 2026). The commission is not sitting yet: the Ministry of Digital Affairs expects a chair in October 2026 and work to start in November. We have not confirmed the exact start date of the Polish Act, so we do not guess it.
Literacy (2 February 2025) and chatbot-transparency (2 August 2026) stay on the Union dates. The Polish Act organises supervision and penalties; it does not move those dates. Article 50 requires a clear notice. It does not name Polish. Whether Polish language-of-contract rules add a Polish-language chatbot notice is not verified here.
