  • First-year rates are the Ministry of Finance offer for October 2026 – they change monthly; check obligacjeskarbowe.pl.
  • Early redemption carries a fee (TOS PLN 1, COI and ROS PLN 2, EDO PLN 3 per PLN 100), capped at accrued interest.
  • Horizon longer than the issue: at maturity the money rolls into the same series (after tax).
  • ROS is only available to beneficiaries of the “Rodzina 800 plus” programme.

How it is computed

  1. 1Year by yearTOS, ROS and EDO add interest to principal every year; COI pays it out yearly (after tax it goes into a deposit at the rate you set). From year two the rate = assumed inflation + margin, not below zero. If the horizon exceeds the issue, the money rolls into the same series at maturity.
  2. 2Redemption, tax, inflationIf the horizon ends before maturity: a fee (TOS PLN 1, COI and ROS PLN 2, EDO PLN 3 per PLN 100), capped at accrued interest. Then 19 % of the gain – unless the bonds sit in an IKE withdrawn after 60. Real value = result ÷ (1 + inflation)^years.

Frequently asked questions

EDO or COI?

EDO has the higher margin (2 pp) and compounds for 10 years, so it gives the most over a long horizon. COI is shorter (4 years), pays interest yearly and has a lower early-redemption fee. If you are unsure whether you will need the money earlier, COI is the safer choice.

Bonds or a deposit?

A deposit wins over a very short horizon with a high promotional rate. From 3–4 years inflation-linked bonds usually give more, as the margin over inflation protects real value – which a deposit does not guarantee. Both are subject to capital-gains tax unless the bonds are in an IKE.

What inflation should I assume?

Nobody knows. September 2026 was 4.0 % y/y; the NBP target is 2.5 % ± 1 pp. Run two scenarios – say 2.5 % and 5 % – and watch the ranking change. With inflation-linked bonds higher inflation raises the coupon; with TOS and a deposit it eats real value.
