  • Can you schedule an appointment for a TRC application?

    Yes, we can! However, in some cases, due to the limited availability of appointments, we may need to submit the application by post. Even in this situation, your legal stay in Poland remains valid as long as the application has been submitted correctly and on time. Our team will keep you informed throughout the process.

  • I received a TRC rejection. Can you help me with an appeal?

    Yes, we can support you with your appeal! Our experts will review the rejection reasons and help you prepare a strong case to turn the decision in your favor. We guide you through the process, submit the necessary documents, and stay by your side every step of the way.

  • How long does it take for a TRC application to be processed?

    The processing time for a Temporary Residence Card (TRC) depends on the method of submission and the workload of the Foreigners' Office. While it’s difficult to give an exact timeframe, our team can provide you with the most up-to-date information about your specific case. Contact us for details.

  • Is Nostrification (Kuratorium) required for students from all countries?

    No, it is not required for students from all countries. Nostrification is only necessary for students from certain countries outside the EU. Countries like the EU member states, OECD countries, and countries with bilateral agreements with Poland may be exempt from this requirement. If you’re unsure whether you need to undergo nostrification, contact our team for guidance and clarification.

  • Are all City Offices and Foreigners' Office procedures conducted in Polish?

Our team provides translation and interpretation services to ensure you fully understand and complete all the necessary steps correctly.
