The new gravimetric quasigeoid model GDQM-PL13 for Poland was determined. The 1’×1’ mean Faye anomalies, deflections of the vertical for the territory of Poland, gravity anomalies from the neighbouring countries and the EGM2008 were used as input data. The remove-compute-restore (RCR) method and the least squares collocation approach with the planar logarithmic covariance function of gravity anomalies were applied. Height anomalies computed from the GDQM-PL13 have been compared with the corresponding ones obtained from GNSS/levelling data at the stations of the POLREF, EUVN and ASG-EUPOS networks and the precise GNSS/levelling control traverse. The new quasigeoid model was also compared with the gravi-metric quasigeoid model GDQ08 developed in 2008 for the area of Poland, with the EGM2008, and with the most recent global geopotential model based on GOCE data. The results of the comparison were analysed and the accuracy of the GDQM-PL13 has been assessed and discussed
