Poland’s economy recorded a modest acceleration in the second quarter of 2026, with gross domestic product growing 3.9% year-over-year, up from 3.8% in the previous quarter on the same basis. The latest reading, updated on 31 August 2026, confirms a gradual strengthening in economic activity compared with the same period a year earlier.
The year-over-year comparison indicates that the current figure reflects how GDP in the second quarter of 2026 performed relative to the second quarter of the previous year, while the prior 3.8% reading measured the first quarter’s output against the same quarter a year earlier. The slight uptick to 3.9% suggests that Poland is maintaining a stable growth trajectory, with incremental improvement rather than sharp acceleration.
