Summary/Abstract: Poland’s integration with the structures of the European Union has resulted in important changes in the conditions for trade between Poland and other EU economies. The access for Polish goods to the Single European Market has become a lot easier. This paper makes an attempt to analyze the development of commodity trade between Poland and the EU from 2005 to 2009. The data for the year 2000 has been taken into account as well. The value of trade with the EU, its commodity pattern as well as trade balance in both total trade and trade in specific commodity sections have been analyzed. In order to determine the character of advantages achieved by Poland on the Single European Market two indices have been implemented: B. Balassa’s revealed comparative advantage indicator (RCA) and H.G. Grubel and P.J. Lloyd’s intra-industry trade index (IIT).
