Poland Estimates War Losses from Ukraine Conflict at 490 Billion Zloty

Poland's Central Statistical Office (GUS) reported that the country incurred losses exceeding 490 billion zloty (approximately 113.5 billion euros) as a result of the war in Ukraine during 2022–2025.

The household sector suffered the largest losses — 292.1 billion zloty (67 billion euros), followed by the business sector at 126 billion zloty (29 billion euros), and the government and local government sector at 72 billion zloty (16.5 billion euros).

The calculations cover four years of the war in Ukraine (2022–2025). The total losses represent approximately 3.5% of Poland's cumulative GDP over those years.

The statistical office considered issues related to the scale of assistance to Ukraine and Ukrainians, labor market changes, economic and demographic shifts, as well as Polish public sentiment.
