At WorkPermitCheck.com, we know how exciting—and stressful—it can be to accept a job offer abroad. Poland is a growing hub for international workers, but with that growth comes an increase in fake work permits and scam job offers.
If you're heading to Poland for work or reviewing an offer from a Polish company, it’s important to make sure your work permit is 100% genuine. Here’s a straightforward guide on how to check a Poland work permit, and how we can help you stay protected.
First, What Kind of Work Permit Do You Have?
Poland issues different types of work permits based on your role and how you’re hired. The most common include:
-
Type A – You're working directly for a Polish company under a standard employment contract
-
Type B – You're a board member living in Poland for more than 6 months in a 12-month period
-
Type C, D, or E – You’re sent by a foreign company to work in Poland temporarily
Every permit is issued by a Voivodeship Office (Urz?d Wojewódzki) in the region where you’ll be employed.
How to Do a Basic Check on a Poland Work Permit
1. Check the Authority
Real permits come from a Voivode. The document should include an official stamp and be issued on proper letterhead.
2. Look Up the Employer
Use Poland’s public registries (KRS or CEIDG) to confirm the company name, tax number, and business status.
3. Compare Key Details
Your name, job title, and employer info should match your job offer or contract.
4. Watch for Warning Signs
Fake permits are often poorly formatted, missing official seals, or sent as image files with no official backing.
If you're not sure how to interpret any of this, that’s exactly where WorkPermitCheck.com comes in—we’ll handle the verification for you.
