PESEL for EU citizen working for a EU company (not Polish) in Poland [42]
Hi,
yes, first of all you have to register your arrival in Poland. For that, you need the following:
1 Copy of your employment contract + original version to show them
1 Copy of your ID or passport + plus the original to show them
2 Applications forms - all filled out in Polish with oeriginal signatures (so don't fill one out sign it and then make a second copy)
1 Statement specifying your arrival in Poland
1 Statement indicating that your understand your rights and duties of registration
After about 2 -3 weeks, you will get your "zaswiadczenie o zarejestrowanie pobytu obywatela unii europejskiej". Of course, you will have to go and pick it up. They don't send it.
With the "zaswiadczenie o zarejestrowanie pobytu obywatela unii europejskiej" you go to the town hall to register your actual address. You do this with your passport. application form, Certification of registration (zaswiadczenie o zarejestrowanie pobytu obywatela unii europejskiej) as well as your landlord (or a legal rep. of your landlord).
After another 2 - 3 weeks, you can go and pick up your piece of paper with your PESEL number.
It may sound like a complicated process, but in reality it is fairly easy (if......your landlord is willing to register you).
