On May 21, 2025, the Sejm passed the final version of the act amending the Act of May 20, 2021 on the Protection of the Rights of the Buyer of a Residential Unit or a Single-Family House and on the Developer Guarantee Fund (commonly referred to as the Developers Act).
We previously informed about the proposed changes and the legislative process in a separate post, which you can read here.
In the final version of the amending act—after incorporating Senate amendments—it has been clarified that developers will be required to maintain a website and publish on it the general part of the information prospectus related to the development project or investment task, as well as other required information, including pricing details. This obligation applies from the start of the sale process, and in the case of reservation agreements, before the first such agreement is signed, and lasts until the transfer of rights from the last developer agreement or final ownership transfer agreement related to the development or investment task.
In other respects, the final version of the amendment to the Developers Act does not differ substantially from the draft discussed in the earlier referenced post.
One particularly important point for developers is that the final act retains the provision granting a 2-month transition period for developers who had already started selling units before the new law comes into effect. This gives them a limited timeframe to comply with the new requirements.
The act is currently awaiting the President’s signature.
Legal status as of May 26, 2025.
