Hi @Paweł Adamczak ,

Please note that these are technical forums, and is not meant for providing legal advice on licensing. licensing questions are best asked directly to a trained Microsoft licensing specialist.

You can contact Microsoft directly and discuss your licensing needs - www.microsoft.com/licensing

For more information about licensing your RDS deployment, see:

License your RDS deployment with client access licenses (CALs)
