Summary/Abstract: The subject of the article is the ‘Explanatory note for entrepreneurs – searches’, which was issued by the President of the Polish Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (hereinafter; President of UOKiK) on 9 December 2019. This Explanatory note is an act of soft law, which, by definition, should be the source of information for entrepreneurs about the interpretation of the law made by the President of UOKiK. It was pointed out in the article that the Explanatory note doesn’t refer to many important problems connected with searches provided by the President of UOKiK, which can negatively affect entrepreneurs’ rights. Consequently, the most important problems requiring interpretation, which should be added and explained in the Explanatory note were listed in the article.
