The Supreme Court of Poland dismissed an extraordinary review against a customs authority decision denying duty-free treatment for imported cars purchased with donated funds. The Fundation argued that the customs law exempting foreign donations from duties should cover these vehicles, while the court held the exemption strictly applies to gratuitous transfers. The court rejected the claim that the state's organs were wrongly perceived by foreign entities, ruling that the statutory language clearly limited the exemption to non-paid acquisitions.

Art. 14 ust. 1 pkt 15 Prawa celnego; Art. 8, 9 k.p.a.; Art. 1 Konstytucji RP: The exemption from customs duties for foreign donations applies strictly to gratuitously received property and does not extend to goods purchased with donated funds, as the statutory text is clear and no extraordinary review based on foreign entity perception is admissible.
