Visa Requirements & Timeline
Country-Specific Requirements
The Polish employer obtains a work permit; you then apply for a national (type D) work visa. An ECNR passport is mandatory and documents must be apostilled.
The work visa is employer-sponsored; a transparent, disclosed service & processing fee applies, agreed upfront, plus statutory costs (passport, medical, PCC).
Expected Timeline
Typically 60–120 days, driven by work-permit approval and visa appointment.
