Fingerprints are taken from all applicants who have turned 6 when applying for a temporary residence permit, a permanent residence permit, a residence permit for EU long-term resident, or a residence card replacement. As of January 1, 2021, this requirement also applies to applications submitted by UK nationals and family members of UK nationals. This is one of the so-called formal requirements — failure to meet it prevents the initiation of the proceedings. Fingerprints are collected during the submission of the application, if you apply in person. If the application is sent by post, you will be required to appear at the post office to provide your fingerprints. Fingerprints are collected using an electronic fingerprint scanner. The collected biometric data are stored on the residence card issued after the residence permit is granted and are used to identify the card holder. Submitting of fingerprints by individuals over the age of 6 is a necessary step for the initiation of proceedings.
These refer to documents without which we cannot initiate proceedings, i.e., we cannot consider your application — for example, a completed and signed application form, photographs, the original passport presented for inspection, etc. You must provide these documents in order to receive a stamp on your passport. The formal assessment of the application is the initial stage of the entire procedure, during which we review the documents you have submitted. If your application form contains formal deficiencies, we will send you a letter requesting that you supplement them and set a deadline for doing so. If you do not submit the requested documents within the specified time, your application will not be further considered — it will be left without examination. If your application form does not contain formal deficiencies, or if you supplement them within the deadline, your documents will be verified in terms of eligibility for granting a residence permit in Poland.
A form of higher education conducted in a daytime system, i.e. from Monday to Friday.
