Sweepstakes, Contests, and Giveaway Laws in Poland

How to organize prize promotions in Poland: authorization, requirements and timelines

In Poland, organizing a commercial prize promotion involving an element of chance requires obtaining a promotional license through a complex authorization process.

To apply for the required permit, promoters must meet several obligations, including providing a bank guarantee and paying a fixed administrative fee, the amount of which depends on the total prize pool value.

👉 Did you know that the approval process for prize promotions in Poland usually takes around two months? However, the timeline may be reduced to approximately 30 days when the total prize value is relatively low.

The authorization process may also take longer if the authorities request additional documentation or need to ensure that the promotion does not overlap with other similar initiatives already approved.
