1,800 PLN housing subsidy plus compensation starting in July. Payments coming soon.

• The President signed a law introducing a monthly housing allowance for uniformed services officers, ranging from PLN 900 to PLN 1,800.
• The act covers, among others, the police, the Border Guard, the State Fire Service and intelligence services, and applications will be available from mid-November.
• The new benefits are intended to increase the flexibility of accommodation by offering various forms of support and limiting the outflow of staff from the services.

In early October, the president signed a law introducing a monthly housing allowance for uniformed services. The amount of the allowance will depend on location and range from 900 to 1,800 PLN per month.

The solutions included in the project concern the accommodation of officers:

• police,
• SG,
• PSP,
• ABW,
• Intelligence Agency,
• Military Counterintelligence Service,
• Military Intelligence Services,
• SOP.

The law will enter into force 30 days after its publication, with effect from July 1, 2025. The new law was published in the Journal of Laws on October 13, meaning applications will be submitted and the first payments will be available in mid-November. These payments will be increased by the July equalization.

The new benefits are designed to provide officers with greater flexibility and better tailor their housing to their needs. They will be able to access one of four forms of support:

• housing benefit,
• allocation of residential premises,
• allocation of temporary accommodation,
• a place in a boarding school or dormitory.

The new solution is intended to counteract the problem of leaving the police force.
