🧭 Official Status

Poland is one of the few European countries to have integrated electric skateboards into law.
They belong to the category of UTOs (Personal Transport Devices), with precise rules for their daily use.

⚙️ Legal Conditions

  • Top speed: 20 km/h on cycle paths.

  • Pavements: only permitted at walking speed, with full priority given to pedestrians.

  • Roadway: prohibited.

  • Minimum age: 10 years old with a cyclist's card or licence (AM, A1, B1, T).
    Prohibited for those under 10 on public ways.

  • 18 years and over: no licence required.

📋 Strict Prohibitions

🚫 Alcohol or narcotics.
🚫 Passengers, animals, or bulky objects.
🚫 Phone in hand while riding.
🚫 Towing another vehicle.

📋 🅿️ Parking

Permitted on pavements if no dedicated spaces exist, provided you:

  • park the skateboard parallel to the edge of the pavement,

  • leave a minimum of 1.5 metres for pedestrians to pass.

In case of non-compliance, the device may be removed at the owner's expense.

🏁 In Summary

Poland offers a clear and favourable legal framework for riders:
e-skates are recognised, authorised, and regulated as a legitimate means of transport.
Limited speed, respect for pedestrians, and caution are key to riding legally and without issue.
