The real life of immigrating to Poland

1. What are the ways of Polish immigration?

A: At present, there is only one way to immigrate to Poland, that is, "employer-sponsored immigration", which can be seen everywhere. I don't know who invented this word. It looks tall, but it means "work attachment" in plain English.

The so-called work attachment is actually to find a company and hire you with this company, so that you can apply for a work residence card, so that you can legally live in Poland and apply for a long-term residence card after working for five years, which is the so-called EU green card.

Apart from this employer-sponsored immigration, there is no other feasible immigration channel, no use of house purchase immigration, no investment immigration, no equity immigration, and no purchase of national debt immigration. At present, the only feasible way is employer-sponsored immigration, which is the only answer standard and nothing else!

-

2. How to apply?

A: The general application process is: first, you need to find an affiliated company, apply to the Labor Bureau, get a work permit, and then submit an application to the Immigration Bureau. This process must be that you hand in the application materials in person, and you can't hand them in on your behalf. Then wait about 4-6 months, and the Immigration Bureau will inform you that the card is successful. At this time, you also need to go to the immigration office to get your card.

-

3. Is it necessary to get a three-year card for the first time?

A: At present, most people apply for a three-year card for the first time, but a few people apply for a two-year card or even a one-year card. As for why, we don't know. Our explanation mainly depends on the mood of immigration or your personality.

-

4. Is it difficult to apply for renewal after the card expires?

A: Applying for renewal after the card expires is basically the same as the first application. You also need to submit the application materials for renewal in person, and you need to pick up the card yourself, so you can't do it on your behalf. Generally, if you apply for renewal, you will get a three-year card. As long as you pay taxes and social security on time during the card application period, there is basically no problem in renewing the card, or it is easy to renew the card. Note: All historical materials must be kept well. If they are lost, it will be very troublesome.

-

5. How can I successfully get a long-term residence card?

A: According to the current working immigration regulations in Poland, if you want to apply for a long-term residence card (the so-called EU green card), you must have worked in Poland for five years. During these five years, you must have a complete tax record and a complete social security record. Another condition is that, theoretically, the total time to leave Poland for personal reasons in five years cannot exceed 10 months.

The last point is of great concern to everyone. Some people say that you can go back to China as a foreigner and get a long-term residence card without staying in Poland for five years. On this point, we have also confirmed to the relevant local lawyers in Poland many times. They think that if he handles it, he will definitely say that he can't do it.

-

6. What exactly is an EU green card?

A: First of all, the EU green card is a packaged advertising word, just like "job attachment" is packaged as "employer-sponsored immigration". In fact, the EU green card is a long-term residence card applied for after working in Poland for five years. This long-term residence card is valid for five years. After five years, you have to renew your card.

In fact, Poland had a long-term residence card with a term of 10 years several years ago, and it was later cancelled. Now Poland only has a five-year long-term residence card.

This long-term residence card was issued by the Polish government. From this point of view, it is a bit exaggerated to package a long-term residence card into an EU green card. However, with this card, you can work in any EU country. Therefore, from this perspective, the Polish long-term residence card does have the meaning of an EU green card.

-

7. What is the difference between a short-term residence card and a long-term residence card?

A: We call the residence card obtained in the early stage a short-term residence card. Short-term residence cards generally have a term of three years, but there are also 1 year or two years. This short-term residence card is strictly bound to your unit. The affiliated unit must pay the relevant social security and personal tax to you on time every month. The short-term residence card is actually your work permit in the affiliated unit.

If your affiliated company goes bankrupt, your residence card will be invalid.

If you change your affiliation, you must apply for a new residence card.

If your position in the affiliated unit changes, you have to apply for a new residence card.

If your home address changes, you must apply for a new residence card.

Those who have worked in Poland for five years and meet the relevant conditions can apply for a five-year long-term residence card. We can compare a long-term residence card to an ID card, which represents your personal legal status and has nothing to do with your affiliated company. You can completely lose your job, change jobs freely, change your address freely, and you don't need to apply for a new residence card. And with a long-term residence card, you can go to other EU countries to work legally.

As can be seen from the above, there is a great difference between a short-term residence card and a long-term residence card, and the long-term residence card has a high gold content.

-

8. Can I legally work in other countries with a short-term residence card?

Answer: You can't work legally. As mentioned above, the short-term residence card is strictly bound to your affiliated company. With the current short-term residence card, you can only work in your company, not in other companies. If you want to work in another company, you must apply for a new residence card.

-

9. Do I need to pay taxes and social security every month to hold a short-term residence card?

A: Yes. If you hold a short-term residence card, your company must pay the relevant social security and personal income tax on time every month. If you don't pay, the affiliated company will be severely punished and the validity of your residence card will be affected.

Polish regular companies are generally very strict in taxation and employee social security, and can't make any mistakes. However, if the affiliated company is not a regular company or is not properly managed, the above-mentioned low-level mistakes will occur, so it is very important to choose a reliable affiliated company.

-

10. Will the affiliated company collect my money without paying social security and related taxes?

A: It may happen. There have been several such cases, so it is very important to choose a good affiliated company.

-

1 1. Do I need to work in an affiliated company?

A: No, the affiliate only provides affiliate services, and you don't need to actually go to work.

-

12. Is the affiliated company a real company?

A: affiliated companies must be real companies and have been filed with government departments.

-

13. How to confirm whether the affiliated company is reliable?

A: It mainly depends on whether the person who handles the residence card for you is reliable. Reliable residence card holders will generally do all kinds of risk control.

-

14, I have a friend who runs a company in Poland. Can I join my friend's company?

A: Of course, if you can link to a friend's company, it should be a better linking scheme, and the related risks will be much smaller. Of course, this must be your friend's consent. If the relationship between friends is not too hard, your friends will not agree.

-

15. What if the affiliated company suddenly goes bankrupt?

A: If the affiliated company suddenly goes out of business, you must find another affiliated company and apply for a residence card again.

-

16. Why do I need an address to apply for a residence card?

A: Yes, definitely. In the process of applying for a residence card in Poland, you need to find a company to link your work status and an address to link your address, which is equivalent to having a fixed contact address. If the government wants to find you, it needs to know where to find you. Apply for a residence card: the company and the address are indispensable. These two resources must be found. These two resources are two important costs for processing residence cards.

-

17. Why can't I just use the address of the house I rented as my home address?

Answer: Generally speaking, you can't do this. The amount of the house rented by oneself and the rental contract is relatively large. Generally, you can rent a decent one-bedroom and one-living room in Warsaw, which is basically around 2,000 Zs (this is the Polish monetary unit, 1 Zs = 1.7 RMB). If you take this rental contract as your address, your salary will be high enough. If the salary is high, you should apply for this kind of residence card at present, and your nominal salary is generally the minimum wage in Poland. Therefore, taking such a rental contract as an auxiliary material for applying for a residence card will definitely be rejected by the Immigration Bureau.

Therefore, you must need a special rental contract, and the rent in this rental contract is low enough, so that even if your salary is the minimum wage, you can use it to survive in Poland.

-

18. Is the affiliated address true or false?

A: The affiliated address must be true, and such a rental contract is absolutely true. It must be signed by the real owner of the house. Everything is true, but the amount above is underestimated. You won't really live at this address. Therefore, if you want the owner of the house to help sign this contract, you need to pay the relevant fees.

-

19. Will the government send someone to this address to check my information?

Yes, the government will send someone to this address to verify your information. This is a step to apply for a residence card. Therefore, in addition to asking the landlord to help sign this rental contract, we should also say hello to the landlord in advance, so that when the government arranges personnel to visit the house, the landlord will do a good job of reception and explain it briefly. Of course, in this case, he doesn't need to be present in person.

-

20. I will buy a house in Poland in the future and use my house as my home address to earn some money, ok?

A: Of course, it's a good way to make money. However, if you have such a house, it doesn't mean that you can use it as an address indefinitely. The number of people you can call is related to the housing area of your house. So, you can make some money in this way, but you can never make a fortune in this way.

At present, there have been some phenomena of selling their residential addresses without restraint, and the final outcome is very simple. All people connected with this address must spend money to apply for a residence card again. Therefore, it is very important to find a reliable agent.

-

2 1. After I arrive in Poland and submit my application to the immigration office as required, do I have to stay in Poland until I get my residence card?

A: This is unnecessary. After submitting the application, you can choose to stay in Poland until you get a residence card. You can also choose to return to China immediately after submitting your application and do your own thing.

However, if you choose the second method, after the residence card is successfully issued, you must come to Poland in person and get the card from the immigration office. No one else can handle the card for you, but you must do it yourself. So, at this time, you have to re-apply for a visa, buy a plane ticket and go to Poland.

-

22. Can I travel to other European countries if I choose to stay in Poland instead of returning home after submitting my application to the Polish Immigration Bureau?

A: You must have a Schengen visa to come to Poland. As long as your Schengen visa is valid, you can choose to travel to other Schengen countries, such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Greece. There are about 26 countries in Schengen, and you can go to all these countries. Note: Britain is not a Schengen country.

However, if your Schengen visa expires, in this case, you can only stay in Poland and not go to any other country. At this time, although your visa has expired, it is completely legal for you to stay in Poland, because you submitted an application for working immigration at the immigration office.

-

23. How long does it usually take to get a residence card after submitting an application?

A: After submitting the application, it will take at least three months to get the residence card. Because there are so many people who apply for this card now, it usually takes five months, sometimes even longer.

-

24. Will the residence card become invalid after submitting the application?

A: According to the requirements of the Immigration Bureau, it can generally be handled after submitting relevant materials. At present, agents or agencies handling such residence cards in Poland use exactly the same method, that is, work attachment, so there is no difference from a technical point of view. It's just that different agents or agencies have different choices of materials, affiliated addresses, affiliated companies and other resources, so it's very important to find an experienced and reliable agent or agency.

-

25. Is it legal to link this kind of work with the Polish residence card? After I get this card, will it be cancelled without reason?

A: The formalities for handling this residence card are completely legal. In Europe, as long as it can be operated on a large scale, it must be supported by relevant legal provisions. As the residence card is legally handled, as long as you pay the relevant social security and taxes on time every month in accordance with the relevant regulations, there will be no illegal events and will not be cancelled without reason.

-

26. The agent said that he has a good relationship with government departments and can do special things. Is it true?/You don't say.

A: This is a complete lie. Europe is a democratic country, and government workers are usually supervised by the opposition parties and the media, and there are very sound laws and regulations. Therefore, government workers are very cautious in doing things, and they dare not have any bad ideas or fake actions at all.

-

27. Poor academic qualifications and poor English. Will my application for a residence card be rejected?

A: The Polish work and residence card does not require academic qualifications and language. You can apply even if your academic qualifications are not high and your English is not good. These personal ability problems will not have any influence on your application for residence card. -

-

28. Am I suitable to immigrate to Poland?

In the past two years, there have been many immigrants from China. According to statistics, in 20 16, the total number of Polish immigrants from China reached 4,000. A very important reason is that the capital cost required for Polish immigrants is relatively low. However, in any case, we have to consider an important issue: how to survive after immigration, which is a very realistic problem and a problem that has to be considered.

Therefore, before planning to immigrate to Poland, if we can consider this question clearly and have a preliminary answer, I personally think that immigrating to Poland is still a very good direction.

-

29. Is it easy to find a job after arriving in Poland?

A: When they come to Poland, most people will consider looking for a job. In Poland, if you want to find a job, a very important condition is that you must speak Polish. It is very difficult to find a job. So if you want to develop in this direction, you must spend time learning Polish after coming to Poland. As long as you learn Polish, it is relatively easy to find a job.

-

30. Is it easy to learn Polish?

Answer: Polish is more difficult. It takes a lot of effort to learn Polish. If you study Polish full-time, it usually takes one year to reach the level of daily communication.

-

3 1. What is the general salary for finding a job in Poland?

A: The current minimum wage in Poland is 2,000 zlotys. Excluding tax and social security, the final salary is about 1400 zloty, equivalent to about 2400 yuan. The current average wage in Poland is about 3200 zlotys. After deducting taxes and social security, the salary is about 2 100 Zs, which is equivalent to about 3600 yuan. As can be seen from the above data, if the market is not short of talents or personal skills are not very prominent, such as just selling coolies, it is basically impossible to live a well-off life by working.

-

32. What kind of job is relatively easy to find in Poland?

A: IT is observed that teachers, IT engineers and chefs in China are more likely to find jobs.

-

33. After arriving in Poland, I want to start a business. Is it easy to start a business?

A: There are relatively few Chinese in Poland. If you have certain resources or skills, entrepreneurship should be the best development direction. However, Poland is a country with a very sound legal system. If you want to start a business, you must know the local laws and regulations, such as taxation, financial standards and qualifications. If these aspects are not well grasped, the risk will be very great. Therefore, if you want to start a business, you'd better find relevant legal advisers or consulting companies for professional guidance.

For example, there are many restrictions on opening a restaurant, such as the hygiene requirements of the restaurant, smoke exhaust, disturbing the people, and special approval for selling wine. These are all issues that must be considered.

-

When I arrive in Poland, I want to register a company. As a China, can I register a company in Poland?

A: It is easy to register a company in Poland. The government has no special restrictions on foreigners registering companies in Poland. Generally, they are registered limited liability companies with a minimum registered capital of 5000 Zs, and capital verification is not required. Generally, the company registration can be completed in one month.

-

35. What is the general fee for registering a company?

A: Registered companies generally need lawyers to help them operate. Fees generally include: lawyer's agency fee, notary fee and new company establishment tax. In addition, when registering a company, you need to have the registered address of the company. If you don't have an office address, you need to find a registered address, and you also need a certain fee.

-

36. What fees do you usually need after the company is successfully registered?

A: During the operation of the company, in addition to employees' salaries, the company's fixed expenses mainly include office space rental fees and financial outsourcing fees. If there is no office space, but the address is related, you only need to pay the rental fee for the related address. According to the regulations of the Polish government, companies must make monthly tax returns and submit annual reports from March to April every year. Generally, newly established small companies are financial outsourcing, and they need to pay related financial outsourcing service fees.

-

37. Can I use my rented house to register a company?

Yes, but you must get the landlord's permission.

-

38. After immigrating to Poland, I want to do purchasing, is it ok?

A: Of course, many China immigrants usually do some shopping first. After all, this is the simplest and quickest way to generate income.

-

39. What are the advantages of purchasing in Poland?

A: Generally speaking, the dominant products purchased by Poland mainly include baby milk powder, some health products and cosmetics. Some people also make some luxury goods, but there are fewer types of luxury goods in Poland.

-

40. Where can I purchase goods from Poland?

A: Under normal circumstances, people will go to pharmacies or supermarkets to buy them.

-

4 1. When purchasing in Poland, can I purchase directly from the manufacturer?

A: This is very difficult, and it can't be done under normal circumstances.

-

42. Can I get a tax refund when I shop in Poland?

A: No. If you are an immigrant and you are a local resident, the tax refund is only for tourists with Schengen visas and foreign citizens on business trips.

-

43. How can I send my purchases in Poland back to China?

A: Generally, it is sent back to China through the post office, which is the only delivery channel for purchasing in Poland.

-

44. How much can you earn by purchasing in Poland for one month?

A: It depends on how many goods you can deliver. Under normal circumstances, it should be possible to earn 5000 yuan, but it is not recommended for ambitious students to plunge into purchasing. When you really enter this field, you will know that communication, purchasing, packaging, going to the post office and releasing products are actually a lot of work. Want to earn 5000 a month, the effort is huge, I knew it from the beginning. ), the landlord put the words here first. If you plunge into purchasing, 24 hours a day, it may affect your great ambition in Poland.

-

6 1. How to judge the reliability of your affiliated company?

A: Today, someone asked me how to judge the reliability of affiliated companies. Here's the easiest way.

Companies that are truly registered in Poland have NIP numbers or regional numbers. Please consult the names of your subsidiaries and these numbers. This number is equivalent to the company's ID card, similar to the domestic organization code. There is a special government website to inquire about the company's registration time, who is the legal person, shares, registration place and other basic information.

Students with a little discernment will know that according to the company's registration time, the legal person will know the general operation of the company and have a basic judgment on its reliability (if you don't know how to check, the landlord is willing to help everyone, just yourself).

Today, I learned that many people simply don't know the company name, NIP number and other basic information. I just want to say, what a big heart

-

6 1. How much tax should I pay to the affiliated company every month?

Monthly fees of subsidiaries.

Mainly composed of these parts, individual contributions (personal tax and social security), company contributions (such as personal tax and social security), financial and accounting expenses, which add up to reasonable affiliated company expenses.

Take a single person as an example: with the minimum basic salary of foreigners in Poland as an account, the reasonable monthly membership fee is about 1300 zloty. According to common sense, it is probably such a cost.

-

62. How appropriate is it to educate children about Polish immigrants?

Many people tend to believe all the propaganda of some immigrants. All the free compulsory education can live for only a few hundred dollars a month, and they don't really invest. Only in Poland did they find that they could not enjoy free compulsory education at all. Why?

Free compulsory education must be in public schools. Public schools must teach in Polish, and English is an optional course. Usually in the fourth grade of primary school, they will choose another language. The most suitable age is 4-8 years old. The younger the child, the better. It is almost no problem to adapt to the language for half a year. Chinese has been in books since the age of 4, so parents with young children need to make great efforts to cultivate their children's Chinese.

If the child 10 is over the age of 0, he has thoughts, psychological reactions and more cognition. Relatively speaking, accepting the language will be slower. Putting children directly in Polish schools will have an impact on their education and psychology. Many parents finally have to consider sending their children to international schools for various reasons, and they simply cannot enjoy the benefits of compulsory education.

There are also parents who have never considered public schools and sent their children directly to English schools. It is said that it is much more affordable than domestic English schools.

In short, it depends on your own situation.

-

62. Today, we continue to release a heavyweight message. How to confirm whether your insurance has been paid?

All my friends may have had such questions. How can I find out if I have paid social security every month? How much did you pay? Well, that's the procedure introduced today.

1, first of all, you should have a NIP number (as I said before, it is the identification code of your affiliated company).

There are two ways to get the nip number. One way is to ask the intermediary, they must know. Another way is to go directly to the Social Security Bureau for search.

2. Where is the tax office? Search for the following Polish language on Google. A is with a tail.

Urzad skarboway warszawa+your address area (for example, urzad skarbowy warszawa mokotow)

3. Go by yourself when you find it. If it is difficult to communicate in English, it is recommended to bring a friend who can speak Polish.

In this place, you can apply to print the tax bill and modify the mailing address of the tax bill.

It is important that you can also consult online to apply for a password. You can check online every month, or you can go to the Social Security Bureau for consultation according to your own needs, and the most authentic information will be known.

Of course, the insurance policy only shows the social security part. As for the company's payment, we can't find it at present, but at least we can confirm whether our social security has been paid.

-

63. What materials do you need at least to change the intermediary?

The landlord has just changed his job and residence card. Just now, I said that I was dissatisfied with the intermediary, just like my job-hopping. Then I'll share it. In fact, changing an intermediary is equivalent to changing a job. To re-apply for residence, you must have the following materials.

1, the original description of the termination of the work contract is the resignation certificate (is your previous affiliated company willing to issue it for you? )

2. All tax statements of the original company (this can be opened by the tax bureau itself)

3. The original resolution to apply for the residence card (it must be the original, many students don't have it at all, they are all held by the intermediary. Can I give it to you? )

4./kloc-You must go to the immigration office to resubmit the materials within 0/5 days.

5. If you transfer to your registered company, you must not be a shareholder, at least not a major shareholder.

-

Speaking of ordinary people leading a normal life, in what capacity is it more appropriate to live in Poland?

Actually, think about it. Think about the old immigrants who have stayed for a long time. There are only two living conditions, work and doing things by yourself.

1, part-time, if you have enough skills to find a job normally, it's not as difficult as you think, and the landlord himself doesn't find it difficult to find a job. In the IT field, the best solution after leaving my job is to go to a well-known system integration company in Poland, but for family reasons, I choose to give up and go to work normally just like going to work. The company pays taxes, gets paid by itself, and lives a normal life.

It is also a good way to start your own business and hire yourself in your own company. There are many opportunities in Poland at present. To find, to bear, to persist. It should work.

-

65. Everything is contingent. What if I lose my residence card?

First of all, please take care of your residence card. It is very, very troublesome to lose it.

1. If you find your residence card lost, please find the nearest police station you think is lost and report the loss as soon as possible. Whether it is lost or stolen, you need to go to the police station. Please don't worry about the language problem, the police station will provide free translation.

The police will record the process of your loss or theft in great detail. Remember it's very, very detailed. There are two problems here. The police will ask you the address of your company, your occupation and your address, so be sure to let your agent get these data and keep them in your mobile phone in case of other accidents.

Then the police will give you a certificate to confirm that your card is really lost, and then you need to go to the immigration office to reissue it within 3 days. In fact, the process of reissuing the card also requires the participation of your intermediary, and the cost depends on your intermediary's conscience.

To sum up, please don't lose your card. Please ask the address, name and specific address of your company in advance to avoid being used. Try to be consistent where there are personal records.

66. How can I come to Poland if the employer-related mode of changing a tourist visa to a work visa stops?

1, looking for a formal job in Poland

At present, Poland has a great demand for teachers, chefs and IT fields.

The unified conditions of this kind of work, English communication needs to reach the working level, it is best to have an examination certificate, chefs and teachers need professional qualification certificates, IT field, java engineers, data analysts, process designers, testing, game testing and so on. The basic salary is above 6000 zlotys. If you have enough ability, it can reach 8000- 10000 zloty, and the company can include various taxes.

The way to deal with it is to screen talents through resumes, and if skype interviews are successful, you can get an offer. The company will send you a job invitation and send it to China. You can come to Poland after applying for a work visa according to the requirements of the embassy in China. With a work visa, you can make an appointment with the Immigration Bureau, submit materials and take fingerprints. Immigration will also issue a three-year residence card.

2. If you don't have enough ability, then continue to call, but you need to find a company that can send you a formal job invitation letter and apply for a work visa in China. When a family of three comes to Poland, the monthly tax will be higher, and the minimum wage will be about 4000 zlotys.

Ask and answer. A

Q: If you are unhappy through the intermediary now, it will be another sum of money to find someone to help you.

Three years of follow-up is also money.

Please share this information with the landlord.

Including what is the best way for a normal person.

Registered company?

A: I've always told you to pay attention to the things and expenses for five years until you get permanent residence. If you choose the wrong intermediary at first, you will catch up with the thief boat. It is a feeling of riding a tiger, and it is very expensive to change it. What's more, even if it is changed, it will not be so easy. All kinds of registration materials are in the hands of the first intermediary, and it will have a great impact if it is particularly unreliable.

This is really a problem, so I remind you again and again that you should ask clearly when you start to handle it. I have also met other intermediaries who paid a deposit instead of changing it. So far, I haven't met anyone who said that I got the card and said that I want to change it.

-

Choosing an intermediary is actually choosing a platform for living in Poland-this was told to me yesterday. I wonder how many people can understand the meaning of this sentence.

Hope to adopt thank you! Our skilled immigrants in Canada are RMB 300,000, and there is no charge for failure! !
