Poland: student residence card
The document package for a temporary residence permit to study in Poland.
The request pays for nothing. A manager confirms the contents, timing and price, and only then do you pay.
The price of our work. University, consulate and partner fees are paid separately, on their invoices, with no markup from us.
Students from outside the EU need a temporary residence permit (karta pobytu). The application is filed electronically through the MOS portal with the voivodeship where you live, and the university completes the enrolment certificate. The permit is issued for the period of study, but for no more than three years.
We prepare the documents, check the application and tell you the order of steps. The voivode decides. Requirements depend on the university, programme and admission year.
