The next time change in Poland: October 31, 2021
The change to summertime in Poland takes place on the last Sunday of March. Poland switches back to regular time on the last Sunday of October.
The European Union lawmakers decided to end the twice-a-year (March and October) custom of time changes throughout the European Union, leaving member states the freedom to decide their standard time.
The national governments have yet to take a stance. The coronavirus pandemic has pushed the issue of changing the time into the background.
It is not yet known whether the last time change in Poland will take place in 2021 – there are no new legal regulations yet.
