Abstract: Abstract The basic purpose hereof is to characterise the structure of the aggravated types of the offence of money laundering in Poland and France. For this purpose, the concept of the aggravated type of offence will be explained. Moreover, the aggravation circumstances entailing aggravated liability of the culprit of money laundering in the Polish Penal Code (commitment of the attributes of the offence by the culprit in agreement with other persons or obtaining of a significant property benefit as a consequence of realisation of its attributes) and in the French Penal Code (realisation of the attributes of money laundering in a usual way or by entities that due to the performed professional activity use the occasion to commit it or commitment of the offence in an organised criminal group) will be discussed and compared. In the further part of the article, the statistical data relating to the number of convictions for the characterised phenomenon will be compiled and the trends in the field of the frequency of its realisation will be determined.
