How to Fill Out an Application for Granting and Justifying Polish Citizenship?

How to Fill Out the Application for Polish Citizenship?

The instructions on how to fill out the application for Polish citizenship by the President can be found on the last pages of the form. It is important to read them before you begin filling out the application.

Remember that the application for citizenship must be completed in Polish, using legible block letters. All fields must be filled out. If a question does not apply to your situation, write "NOT APPLICABLE" in that field.

How to Write the Justification for the Application for Polish Citizenship?

Foreigners often wonder how to write a justification for their application for Polish citizenship. There is nearly one and a half pages of guidelines, so it’s important to elaborate on the topic. Here, you can express your attachment to the Polish nation, mention how you cultivate Polish traditions, and explain how being granted citizenship will help you integrate into the country.

The application must include all documents that verify the information contained in the form. If the originals are in a foreign language, a certified translation must be provided.

Where to Submit the Application for Polish Citizenship and Who Can Do It?

You can submit your application for Polish citizenship at any time through the voivode or consulate. You cannot submit it directly to the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland.

Any foreigner can submit an application for Polish citizenship. The decision, whether positive or negative, depends solely on the will of the Head of State and is not explained. You cannot appeal this decision, but you can submit a new application.

Ways to Obtain Polish Citizenship

Granting Polish citizenship is not the only way to become part of the Polish nation. Another option is to be recognized as a Polish citizen. However, in this case, you must meet a number of requirements, which must be confirmed by appropriate documents. You can appeal a negative decision.

If you lost your Polish citizenship before January 1, 1999, you do not need to go through these procedures. You can apply for the restoration of Polish citizenship to the Minister of Foreign Affairs or through the consulate. However, this route is not available if you voluntarily renounced your citizenship.

If you are a descendant of Polish immigrants, it may turn out that you are a Polish citizen by law, even without a confirming document. To check this, you can apply for confirmation of Polish citizenship.
