No. Polish law prohibits lift kits exceeding 6 inches (152.4 mm) on passenger vehicles unless homologated under EU-wide type-approval regulations. The 2026 amendment to the Road Traffic Act tightens enforcement, requiring technical inspections for modified suspension systems.
Key Regulations for Lift Kits Over 6 Inches in Poland
- EU Type-Approval Mandate: Lift kits must comply with Regulation (EU) 2018/858 or UNECE R100 for vehicle safety, with Polish Transport Inspectorate (ITD) verifying documentation during periodic technical inspections (PTI).
- Height Restrictions: Vehicles exceeding 2.5 meters in height (including lift) face mandatory inspection at ITD-certified stations; non-compliant vehicles may be impounded under Article 67(1) of the Road Traffic Act.
- Insurance & Liability: Insurers may void collision coverage if lift kits lack homologation, as per Polish Financial Supervision Authority (UKNF) guidelines effective 2025.
Modifications must align with Directive 2007/46/EC, and aftermarket kits require individual approval from the Ministry of Infrastructure. Non-compliant vehicles risk fines up to PLN 5,000 (≈€1,100) and mandatory re-certification.
