Frequently asked questions about legalising your stay in Poznań
Where do I collect my residence card in Poznań and do I need an appointment?
The Department for Foreigners of the Greater Poland Voivodeship Office receives visitors at pl. Wolności 17. Online booking is required at migrant.poznan.uw.gov.pl, so it is not worth going without one. On Mondays the office is open 9:30–18:00, Tuesday to Friday 8:15–15:15.
What is the department’s infoline number in Poznań?
The infoline is 61 850 87 77: Mondays 9:30–16:00, Tuesday to Friday 8:15–15:15. The same number can be used for questions about the branches in Kalisz, Konin, Leszno and Piła.
Are there extra card-collection hours?
In October 2026 the office announced extra card-collection hours on Wednesdays from 15:15 to 17:15 and one extra Saturday (17 October 2026). Check migrant.poznan.uw.gov.pl for current dates, because the office changes them month by month. Poznań also has an information point at the Centrum Integracji Cudzoziemców, ul. Mielżyńskiego 14a.
How much does a residence card cost in Poznań?
Official fees are the same across Poland, so in Poznań you pay exactly what you would pay anywhere else. The office charges PLN 340 or 440 for a temporary-residence application (depending on the basis of stay), PLN 640 for permanent residence and PLN 100 for the card itself. On top of that come the ONE PLUS fees: from PLN 700 to 2,700, depending on the package (ONE, PLUS, PRO) and the basis of stay. We will give you the exact amount after a short chat about your situation.
Which documents do I need to start?
Usually a passport, documents that prove your basis of stay (an employment contract, a university certificate, family or company documents), proof of where you live and insurance. This is a rough list, because the exact set depends on your situation. After the consultation you get a specific checklist, so you do not have to guess.
How long will my case take?
We do not promise exact dates, because the time depends on the basis of stay, how complete your documents are and the office’s workload. What we can do is make sure your application is complete, since missing documents are the most common cause of delays. You can always check the status in MOS 2.0, and we tell you about every letter from the office.
Do I have to be there in person in Poznań?
In most cases, no. The application is filed online, and you usually only visit the office to collect the card and give fingerprints. We handle the rest remotely, and if you prefer to talk face to face, you can visit our office in Wrocław.
What if the office in Poznań does not respond?
First we check whether the statutory deadline has passed and whether there is an unread letter waiting for you. If the deadline has passed, we prepare a reminder about the deadline (ponaglenie), which is a formal request to the office. If the office stays silent, you can file a complaint about its inaction with the administrative court.
Do you help clients from the whole region?
Yes, we handle cases from all over Greater Poland. We work remotely from our Wrocław office, so where you live does not matter: a phone and an internet connection are enough.
What does the ONE PLUS CRM client panel give me?
It shows the case status, your documents and messages from your specialist in one place. We also notify you of changes by SMS or Telegram, so you do not have to keep calling or checking your email.
How do I book a free consultation?
Leave a request on the website or call us. During the conversation we check your basis of stay, your documents and realistic timelines, and then tell you what we can do and how much it will cost. The consultation does not oblige you to anything.

Real reviews from clients who applied for a residence card with ONE PLUS.
Thank you to the company ONE PLUS for the professional help in processing and managing my residence permit application. This is my first card. The documents were submitted in July 2021, and we updated the application in January because I had already submitted the documents. I received the decision at the end of May, and the card itself was ready at the beginning of September 2022.
2022
I am very grateful to the ONE PLUS company for their help in obtaining a residence permit. This is not the first time I have contacted them and as always everything is at the highest level. I RECOMMEND.
2025
Thank you for your support and care with my residence card application. Working with such professionals is a pure pleasure!
November 2025
The help I received concerned immigration, legal residence, preparing documents and obtaining a residence card. It is important to find specialists who know the law, explain each stage clearly and help avoid unnecessary difficulties. Professional legal advice can be useful for understanding application deadlines, the requirements for forms and certificates, and your rights and obligations. I would also highlight the help of an immigration lawyer who can explain complicated issues in plain language, answer questions and guide you through the next steps.
23.10.2026 · Shortened review
I strongly recommend using One Plus services to anyone planning to live and work in Poland. Regardless of what information you find on the internet, it will not replace professional help; believe me, this is my personal experience. For someone travelling for the first time, it is hard to figure out where to start when it comes to formalities and other documents. In the end I managed to get the card in the shortest possible time, with minimal time and cost.
2024

I wish your company success and grateful clients!

Very nice service. From signing the terms and conditions to receiving the card they were in constant contact (we managed to submit a case that had been filed a year and a half before I contacted this agency). They helped me win the case in court, because waiting for the decision took me so much time. I recommend …

Legal Precedents for Karta Pobytu
We know how to speed up the Karta Pobytu process legally and secure compensation for delays.
Financial compensation of 2,100 PLN for Karta Pobytu cases pending since 2019.
Financial compensation of 1,600 PLN for Karta Pobytu cases pending since 2019.
Financial compensation of 2,600 PLN for Karta Pobytu cases pending since 2019.
Financial compensation of 4,300 PLN for Karta Pobytu cases pending since 2017.
Important: due to the current special rules extended until 4 March 2027, some procedural remedies remain temporarily limited. In practice, this may reduce the ability to react quickly to administrative inaction or pursue compensation through the standard route.
At the same time, clients who entrust their Karta Pobytu case to ONE PLUS receive far more than document filing. We provide ongoing procedural support, prepare the necessary legal submissions, monitor the case closely and use the available legal tools to influence its progress wherever possible. Learn more here: how to speed up your TRC decision.
