Documents checklist
The most frequent applications and the documents the Polish authorities ask for:
Polish passport for adults (application abroad)
- Book an appointment in the e-konsulat system and apply in person; collect the passport at the same consular post
- A biometric colour photo – without a suitable photo the consul will not accept the application
- Your valid passport or ID card confirming your identity and Polish citizenship
- For a reduced fee: proof of eligibility (e.g. student, pensioner or Large Family Card); applicants aged 70 or over pay no fee
- While you wait, or in a documented emergency, a temporary passport can be issued
