Life / Getting a NIP or PESEL [21]
Hi Derek,
Its a bloody nightmare dealing with polish offices I am just in the final stages of getting both numbers and I have a residency card for the last 4 years, but the most important thing you must do is register yourself at the apartment and pay tax within the first year on the property. At the moment eu citizens do not need a residency card but you will find that smaller local govt offices will advise that you need a card. The only reason you will need a nip and pesel is if you are starting a business in Poland.
