What problems we solve for employers

When foreign employees work in a company, it is essential to understand: who is legally allowed to work, whose documents are expiring, and what actions must be taken in advance.

Expiring residence card, visa, or visa-free stay

We track document validity and proactively inform you what needs to be extended.

Uncertainty about hiring eligibility

We verify the legal basis of stay, citizenship, documents, and possible lawful employment options.

Errors in work permits

We check whether the permit matches the position, employer, working conditions, and employee data.

Employee applying for a residence card

We prepare the entire process: documents, application, MOS 2.0 system, coordination with the employer, and ongoing case handling.

Lack of deadline control

We manage employees in our CRM system and remind you when documents must be renewed or prepared.

We verify whether cooperation with a foreign entrepreneur is safe and what documentation is required.

B2B/JDG cooperation with foreigners

If a company works with a foreigner as an entrepreneur, it is important to verify not only the contract but also the legal right to stay in Poland and perform work in this model.

JDG verification

We check business registration and basic contractor data.

Legal basis of stay

We verify the basis of stay in Poland and possible work restrictions.

B2B contract review

We assess whether the cooperation resembles disguised employment under a B2B structure.

Accounting documentation

We indicate what data and documents should be collected before cooperation begins.

B2B verification process

Contractor data

JDG, NIP, CEIDG/KRS, address, contract details.

Foreign employee documents

Residence card, visa, PESEL UKR, or other legal basis of stay.

Cooperation model

Job scope, workplace, management structure, and invoicing method.

Conclusion

What can be improved before starting cooperation and what documents should be stored.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the employee legalisation process take?

The timeline depends on the procedure and the city where the case is handled. Work permits, residence cards, document extensions, and employee verification all take different amounts of time. After an initial analysis, we explain the exact steps for your case and what can be prepared in advance.

Do you only work with large companies?

No. We work with both small businesses and companies employing dozens or more foreign workers. You can request support for a single employee, a group of employees, or ongoing full-service cooperation.

What do you check before hiring a foreign employee?

We review the legal basis of stay in Poland, document validity, citizenship, possible legal employment options, and whether the person holds a residence card, visa, PESEL UKR, or other required documents. After verification, we explain whether the candidate can be legally hired and what documents are required from the employer.

Do you help with residence cards (Karta Pobytu) for employees?

Yes. We prepare documents, applications, assist with the MOS 2.0 system, support employer documentation, and guide employees through all stages of the process.

Do you work with the MOS 2.0 system?

Yes. For cases processed through MOS 2.0, we help prepare applications and documents and manage the submission process. Employers receive clear instructions on what documents are required from their side.

Can you check employees who are already working?

Yes. We verify foreign employees’ documents, expiry dates of residence cards, visas, and work permits, and identify risks or documents that need to be renewed.

Do you support B2B/JDG foreign contractors?

Yes. We check foreign contractors working as entrepreneurs, including their documents, legal basis of stay, and the structure of the B2B agreement.

Do you work across all of Poland?

Yes. We support clients in different cities across Poland. Our main office is in Warsaw (with additional offices in Wrocław and Poznań), but many processes can be handled remotely.

What happens if an application is refused?

We analyse the reason for the refusal and explain possible next steps: correcting the situation, re-submission, or appeal if there are legal grounds.
