Notarial fees
The notary's remuneration depends on the type of act, the value of the transaction and its complexity. We price every matter individually — contact us for a free quote.
Notarial fee — individual valuation
The notary's remuneration, known as the notarial fee (taksa notarialna), is set individually for each act. The maximum rates are defined by the Regulation of the Minister of Justice of 28 June 2004 on maximum notarial fee rates — the final amount, however, depends on the value of the transaction, its type and its complexity.
What affects the cost of a notarial deed
- the value of the transaction (e.g. property price, amount of a donation)
- the type of act (sale, donation, will, power of attorney)
- the number of parties and powers of attorney
- the complexity of the matter (unusual clauses, additional declarations)
We price every matter individually. A preliminary quote — after a short conversation or once you send the documents — is free and non-binding.
Additional fees collected by the notary
Apart from the notarial fee, the notary, acting as a remitter, collects certain taxes and charges and transfers them to the relevant state authorities. Below are examples of the charges and taxes collected by the office:
Court fees (land and mortgage register entries)
| Type of entry | Fee |
|---|---|
| Entry of ownership / perpetual usufruct / mortgage | 200 zł |
| Entry of ownership based on inheritance, division of estate or dissolution of co-ownership | 150 zł |
| Entry of ownership from division of marital property | 150 zł |
| Establishing a new land and mortgage register | 100 zł |
| Removal of a mortgage | 100 zł |
Tax on civil law transactions (PCC)
PCC tax is charged on the sale of real estate and the conclusion of company agreements. The notary is the remitter and transfers it directly to the tax office.
| Transaction | Rate | Payer |
|---|---|---|
| Sale of real estate | 2% of the sale price | Buyer |
| Conclusion / amendment of a company agreement | 0.5% of the asset value | Party contributing the assets |
| Establishing a mortgage securing a claim of a fixed amount | 0.1% of the secured claim amount | Party establishing the mortgage |
| Establishing a mortgage securing a claim of an unspecified amount | PLN 19 (flat rate) | Party establishing the mortgage |
| Loan agreement | 0.5% of the loan amount | Borrower |
PCC exemption when buying your first home
Since 31 August 2023, a buyer purchasing their first apartment or house on the secondary market is exempt from PCC tax (Art. 9(17) of the PCC Act). The exemption covers the purchase of a residential unit constituting separate property, a single-family house, and a cooperative ownership right to a residential unit.
The condition is that the buyer has never previously owned or co-owned any residential property — in Poland or abroad (except for a share acquired through inheritance not exceeding 50% in total). The exemption does not cover purchases from a developer (primary market).
Inheritance and donation tax
The closest family (spouse, children, parents, siblings — the so-called group 0) is exempt from inheritance and donation tax, provided the acquisition is reported to the competent tax office. In other cases, the amount of tax depends on the degree of kinship and the value of the assets acquired.
If the donation agreement is concluded in the form of a notarial deed, the notary reports it to the tax office — the recipient does not have to file it themselves.
