Summary
Seaports are important elements of international and national transport systems. As such, they represent attractive locations for conducting a broad range of econom-ic activities, mainly related to cargo handling, vehicles and passengers. Since the ear-liest times, they have also been an attractive place to locate commercial operations. Institutions related to the commercial functions of ports are Duty-Free Zones. The aim of the article is to present them as places that are particularly favourable to the development of international trade, offering numerous benefits and conveniences. In particular, the article focuses on the presentation of three Free Zones which since the mid-1990s continue to operate in Polish seaports.
