The aim of this paper is the description of changes in the Polish law on waste connected with the passing and the implementation of the new main act for this branch of law,  i.e. the Act on Waste of 14 December 2012. By means of this Act the Polish law on waste is being amended to the requirements resulting from the Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives.

The description of the new Polish Act on Waste was presented, on the one hand, by the indication of new solutions resulting from the Directive 2008/98. On the other hand, the changes in comparison with the former binding act, i.e. the Act on Waste of 27 April 2001, were presented.
