Legal Support for EU Citizens and Their Families

Citizens of the European Union enjoy the right to free movement, meaning they can live and work in Poland without a visa. However, settling in Poland still involves administrative obligations that must be met to avoid legal issues. J&R Consult provides specialized services for EU nationals and their family members to ensure full compliance with Polish regulations.

Registration of Stay

If you plan to stay in Poland for longer than 3 months, you are required to register your residence. This is mandatory for citizens of the EU, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland. We handle the paperwork at the Voivodeship Office, helping you prove your employment, studies, or financial independence to obtain your registration certificate.

Non-EU Family Members

If you are an EU citizen moving to Poland with family members who are not EU citizens (e.g., a spouse from the USA or India), they have specific rights derived from EU law. We assist in obtaining:

• Residence Cards for Family Members of EU Citizens: This special card confirms their right to live and work in Poland with you.
• Visas: Facilitating their entry into Poland to join you.

Permanent Residence for EU Citizens

After 5 years of continuous legal residence in Poland, EU citizens acquire the right of permanent residence automatically. However, obtaining the document certifying this right is a separate administrative process. We assist you in gathering the necessary proofs of residence and applying for the document confirming the right of permanent residence.

We ensure that your family's rights under EU law are fully respected and exercised, making your move to Poland seamless.
