Frequently asked questions

Poland: which side of the road do they drive on?

On the right. Speed limits are posted at the roadside and differ between towns, open roads and motorways.

Which currency will I be charged in?

Prices are usually set in PLN. The rental company sets both the price and the deposit, and shows them before you book.

Can I drive the car into another country?

Often yes within the EU, but never assume it. Crossing a border has to be allowed by the rental company and usually costs extra, so check the terms before you book.

What are the speed limits in Poland?

50 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on open roads, 140 km/h on motorways.

Are the motorways tolled?

Motorways charge at the barrier.
