Anyone who would want to work in Poland legally should acquire a ‘Work permit’. This document entitles the person to work on a specific job for some time by the local and national regulations. Usually, the employer applies for the work permit and acquires the approval for the employee, which in this case would be a qualified foreigner who fulfills the specific job role available to the employer. It is essential to get a work permit for working based on employment contracts and civil law contracts. Work permits are issued by a relevant regional office called Voivodeship Office appropriate for the employer’s location. The work permit authorizes the foreigner to work only for the particular job role and employer as specified in the work permit.
There are 6 major subcategories for the work permit. The categorization is done based on the type and nature of the employer.
The cycle of the application process starts with the applicant filling out the work permit application form with all the needed details and the documents.
Copies of Passport, Education qualification certificates, Curriculum vitae, and reference letters are common documents required to apply for any type of the 6 Visas.
