The Supreme Court of Poland overturned a lower court decision and declared customs decisions invalid against a private car buyer. The court found that the buyer, who purchased a vehicle after it was registered in Poland, did not constitute a foreign trade trader under the Customs Law. Consequently, the court ordered the refund of duties paid and annulled the administrative rulings that had previously upheld the customs authority's claim.
