Business visa and business resident permit procedure
In 2020, I wrote an article about general visa and resident permit application information. In this article, I will focus on business visa and business resident permit procedures. Below are the most important steps for obtaining a business visa and business resident permit in Poland.
Step no. 1
The first and most crucial step is to form a company (information about creating a company) or buy a ready-made company in Poland (details on buying a ready-driven company). This step is essential as applying for a business visa is possible with a company in Poland.
Step no. 2
After incorporating the company or buying a ready-made company, the changes must be registered in Registry Court System. After having the differences noted, you will receive a confirmation from the court. Now is the correct time to apply for a business visa at the proper Polish Embassy. When you get well at the interview at the Embassy and provide all required documents, you will obtain a business visa (national or Schengen); congratulations! Now you can travel to Poland for business reasons.
Step no. 3
If you are willing to stay in Poland for a longer time, you will need to apply for a business resident permit. A temporary residence permit application must be filed during your legal stay in Poland. When the proper Voivodeship Officer accepts your application, he will stamp your passport, confirming that you have applied for a temporary residence permit. This stamp legalises your stay in Poland, even though your visa or previous temporary residence permit has expired. Finally, you receive a residence card.
