Poland Annual Leave and Ekwiwalent Calculator 2026

Calculate your annual leave in Poland (20 or 26 days, counting school years), the days due when you leave and the ekwiwalent for unused leave in 2026.

Annual leave (days)
β€”Service counted (years)
β€”Due this year (days)
β€”Days left
β€”Coefficient
β€”Ekwiwalent per day
β€”Ekwiwalent for unused leave (gross)

Since 1 January 2026 periods of business activity and civil-law contracts (zlecenie) also count as service. Variable pay is averaged over the last 3 months. The ekwiwalent is paid only when the contract ends.

What it does


A Polish employee has 20 days of leave a year below 10 years of service and 26 days from 10 years (Kodeks pracy, article 154). Finished school counts as service: 3 years for a basic vocational school, 5 for a secondary vocational school, 4 for a general secondary school, 6 for a post-secondary school and 8 for university, not added together. Part-time employees get a proportional number, rounded up. In the year you leave you get 1/12 for each month started. Unused days are paid as an ekwiwalent: monthly salary ÷ the coefficient (20.92 in 2026) per day.

How to use it


  1. Type your years of work and choose your education.
  2. If you are leaving, type the months worked this year, the days used and your salary.
  3. Read your leave days and the ekwiwalent.

The arithmetic runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere and nothing is stored, so you can use these with real numbers.
