Legalization services for foreigners in Poland
Legalizing your stay in Poland does not start with filling in MOS 2.0 — it starts with choosing the right basis and filing city. Work, business, studies, family, Blue Card, CUKR, permanent stay, EU long-term resident or citizenship all require different logic and documents, and your application is reviewed by the voivodeship office in the region where you file.
ONE PLUS supports foreigners in Wrocław, Warsaw, Poznań and Katowice. We help you understand which city and basis fit your case, verify documents before filing and prepare the case according to the practice of the relevant Urząd Wojewódzki.
The same residence permit type can be handled differently across voivodeships: timelines, document formats, income requirements and wezwanie response logic all vary.
ONE PLUS has officially operated in Poland since 2018, and our specialists have more than 11 years of practical experience in foreigner cases. Thanks to years of hands-on work and ongoing contact with Voivodeship Offices, we understand how cases actually move, where delays most often arise and which steps truly help bring the process to a result as quickly as possible.
The right filing city is not about convenience. It is about which office will assess your documents and how well your case fits local practice.
How to choose the city: Wrocław, Warsaw, Poznań or Katowice
The city where you file your case is determined primarily by your actual place of residence, not by your place of work. The key rule is simple: documents should be submitted to the Voivodeship Office responsible for the address where you genuinely live — whether you rent a flat, have address registration or own your home. At the same time, you may work in another city or even another region, for example if you are a driver, a mobile worker or work across several areas. Warsaw is the right option for people who actually live in the Mazowieckie region, Wrocław for Dolnośląskie, Poznań for Wielkopolskie and Katowice for Śląskie. During the consultation, we review your address, tenancy documents, address registration and real living situation to make sure the case is filed with the correct office.
What we check before filing
- which basis and city are safest for your meldunek and plans;
- passport, photo, current stay status, address and insurance;
- contract, salary, position and employer documents;
- załącznik nr 1, income, PIT, ZUS and other proof;
- family documents, sworn translations and apostille;
- entry history, past visa timelines and previous cards;
- meldunek, lease or right to use the apartment;
- readiness for MOS 2.0, UPO, office visit and wezwania replies.
Main residence permit paths
For legally employed foreigners. We verify the contract, salary, employer documents and prepare the case before filing.
For highly qualified specialists with an employment contract. The minimum salary for a Blue Card in 2026 is PLN 13,355.34 gross per month.
For entrepreneurs, freelancers, JDG, sp. z o.o. and B2B. We help legalize stay through business, an incubator or other forms of activity in Poland.
For students, graduates, spouses and family members. We support study-based applications, family reunification and residence legalization in Poland.
For Ukrainian citizens with PESEL UKR status. The UKR status must have been obtained no later than 4 March 2024 and remain valid on the filing date.
For foreigners after 5 years of legal residence in Poland. A B1 certificate, stable income and tax payments for the last 3 years are required.
Mistakes that most often delay the case
- filing at the wrong office or ignoring residence address;
- unsuitable basis for the application;
- inconsistent data across documents;
- errors in załącznik nr 1 or MOS 2.0;
- insufficient income or missing insurance;
- unread messages from the office;
- filing based on a template from another voivodeship;
- expired certificates, translations or documents.
How ONE PLUS handles legalization cases
We handle every case individually, not through a standard template. First, we analyze your situation, review your current immigration status and check whether your documents are complete and up to date. Then we align the full document package with your legal basis of stay in Poland and the requirements of the specific office handling the case.
Our support does not end with the filing. We stay involved throughout the process: we communicate with the inspector, respond to official requests, update documents when needed, prepare complaints against administrative inactivity and, where necessary, bring the matter before the administrative court to help speed up the decision.
Below you will find prices for obtaining a residence card in Poland, so you can compare support packages and understand which option fits your case.
