National Work Visa in Poland by Voivodeship invitation (Wojewódzki zaproszenie)

The latest EU economy survey (2024) exposed Poland’s labor market is thriving. Career prospects in the republic are promising. Many jobs are available for candidates from all over the world who see Poland as a work destination. In fact, it is now one of the leading shared employment services/business process outsourcing hubs in the European Union.

To start working at one of the corporations in Poland you should get a work visa at the Polish Embassy in your homeland or in the state where you have a permanent residence permit.

This kind of visa is issued on the grounds of Wojewódzki zaproszenie – an invitation from the Voivodeship, licensed by a Voivode (which in translation means the governor post of the Polish governmental division, analogous to a “province” in several other states). A firm that wants to hire a foreigner submits an application for employment to the Voivode office for foreigners at the registration place of the enterprise.

Because the consulate, in the first place, is guided by the Governor’s decision, such an invitation to a visa is almost always confirmed. The application processing period is usually between 12 and 14 weeks (90-120) working days).

The process of obtaining a visa is complicated, long and unpredictable. You are strongly advised not to listen to people who tell you that they can ‘arrange’ a visa for a sum of money. Visas for are issued ONLY by Embassy. ALL visa appointments are handled ONLY by the EMBASSY or VFS and at NO COST! No local agents or student counselors have the authority or are in a position to influence or schedule visa interviews/ appointments.

What is a Schengen Visa for?

You will need a Schengen visa to enter, leave and move around the Schengen countries (including from one to another).

Different categories of Schengen visas

Depending on the purpose of the trip and its duration, the “travel” document necessarily falls into one of the categories – A, B, C or D. on the territory of the airport (it does not give the right to stay in the country), type B gives five days on the road to get through the Schengen territory to the destination. The most common – type C, “short-term tourist”, is needed just for travel. D visa is issued to those who are going to study, work or live permanently in one of the countries.

Information about Poland work permit


A work permit is a document that authorizes a foreigner to work legally in Poland. The permit indicates the company that entrusts the execution of work to the foreigner and the position or the type of work which the foreigner is to perform. The work is therefore regarded as legal only if the foreigner performs the work identified in the permit. This means that if the foreigner wants to change jobs (i.e. change employer and / or position and / or industry) in which he is employed, he has to obtain a new permit.  Each work permit must contain the name of the authority that issued this document. Also, the work permit has a unique number, which easily allows you to certify the legality of the issued document. A work permit is the basis for obtaining a National visa (long-stay type) for 1 year. You can apply for a residence permit only after obtaining a visa and arriving in the country. You cannot obtain a residence permit in absentia or remotely.
