New requirements for visa applications
Note: important information for bachelor’s degree candidates (first-cycle studies)
In line with the new requirements for visa applications introduced by Polish consulates around the world, candidates applying for a student visa are now required to submit a document confirming their eligibility to apply for a bachelor’s degree (first-cycle studies), issued by the Polish Education Superintendent Office (in Polish – Kuratorium Oświaty). Previously, this document could be provided after arrival in Poland, but under the new regulations, it must be submitted along with the visa application. The procedure for master’s degree candidates remains unchanged.
While the new requirement may slightly extend the visa process, the UEHS is fully prepared to support bachelor’s degree candidates throughout this period. To ensure there are no disruptions to their education, candidates who cannot arrive in Poland before the start of classes will be able to participate in lectures online via MS Teams.
We also have developed a range of effective solutions to provide comprehensive assistance in obtaining the required documents. Our support includes:
- preparing the necessary paperwork
- certified translations into Polish
- submitting the application to the Education Superintendent Office
- promptly ensuring the recognized diploma is sent back to the candidate’s home country.
