Poland Work Visa

Poland work visa β€” consultation and document preparation

Georgian citizens holding a biometric passport do not need a visa for tourist travel to Poland (90 days in any 180-day period). However, legal employment requires a national type D visa, issued by the Polish consulate on the basis of a work invitation or work permit.

Important

A Polish national D visa grants the right to work in Poland only. Travel within the Schengen zone is possible under the 90/180 rule. This is not a β€œvisa for the whole EU” β€” no such offer exists.

What a type D work visa gives you

  • The right to live and work in Poland for the validity of the visa (up to 1 year).
  • Travel within the Schengen zone under the 90/180 rule.
  • A long-term path: the option to move to a residence card (Karta pobytu) locally.

Required documents

  • 1Valid biometric passport (min. 2 blank pages).
  • 2Work invitation/permit from Poland (original, or a declaration registered in the register).
  • 3Completed visa application form (in the e-konsulat system).
  • 4Travel/medical insurance (minimum €30,000 coverage).
  • 5Flight reservation.
  • 6Biometric photograph.
  • 7Case by case: additional documents at the consul's request.

What we can help with β€” and what we cannot

We help with

  • Accurate, up-to-date information
  • Document preparation
  • Completing the application form
  • Booking the consulate appointment
  • Support throughout the process

We cannot

  • β€œBuy” a visa
  • Guarantee a visa
  • Bypass the procedure

Whoever makes such an offer, it is a scam. The visa decision is made solely by the consul.

Common mistakes that end in refusal

  • Incomplete or inconsistent documents β€” invitation details that do not match the application form.
  • An incorrectly completed form in e-konsulat.
  • Insurance that does not meet the requirements.
  • Past offences abroad β€” this needs to be discussed openly at the consultation.

Important for foreign nationals in Georgia

A Polish national work visa is generally applied for in the applicant's country of permanent residence. Foreign nationals staying in Georgia will in most cases need a Georgian residence permit in order to apply. We will assess your specific situation and the alternatives at the consultation.
