Inventory of telecommunications infrastructure and services

On 23 October 2026, the Minister of Digital Affairs issued a regulation on the inventory of telecommunications infrastructure and services (Rozporządzenie Ministra Cyfryzacji z dnia 23 października 2026 r. w sprawie inwentaryzacji infrastruktury i usług telekomunikacyjnych – Dziennik Ustaw RP). The act was published in the Journal of Laws (Dziennik Ustaw) on 5 November 2026, under item 1457, and enters into force on 11 November 2026.

The provisions implement the authorisation contained in the act on supporting the development of telecommunications services and networks. They specify which types of infrastructure are subject to inventory, as well as what information on broadband Internet access, voice communication and the distribution of radio and television programmes must be provided.

The regulation also governs the electronic form of the data, the format in which it is submitted, and the manner in which information is presented. It establishes the templates of forms through which operators will provide data to the President of the Electronic Communications Office (Prezes Urzędu Komunikacji Elektronicznej).

Power supply of telecommunications facilities

The second regulation, of 21 October 2026, sets out the technical requirements for electricity in buildings and rooms operated by network operators (Rozporządzenie Ministra Cyfryzacji z dnia 21 października 2026 r. w sprawie warunków technicznych zasilania energią elektryczną obiektów budowlanych telekomunikacji lub pomieszczeń telekomunikacyjnych – Dziennik Ustaw RP). The act was published in the Journal of Laws on 5 November 2026, under item 1461, and entered into force on 6 November 2026.

The provisions define the requirements for power supply infrastructure components and the location of such facilities. They apply to the design, construction and reconstruction of telecommunications buildings and rooms, as well as to expansion or superstructure works where these involve reconstruction of installations.

What it means for the industry

For operators and installation contractors, the nearest deadline is 11 November 2026, when the inventory provisions take effect. Designers and investors building or modernising telecommunications rooms should take the power supply requirements into account from 6 November 2026.
