Main Legalization Challenges for Belarusians

2026 Problems: Expired passports and the end of PBH.

  • Expired Passports (Decree 278): Inability to replace a passport abroad requires obtaining a Polish travel document.
  • The End of PBH: The lack of new PBH visas forces the IT sector to switch to standard Residence Cards and Blue Cards.
  • Risk of Refusal at the Urząd: Stricter document and company checks require flawless legal preparation.

Legalization of Belarusians in Poland 2026

The legal environment for citizens of Belarus in Poland has specific pathways. Following the suspension of the Poland Business Harbour program and the inability to renew passports at embassies (Decree 278), the main focus has shifted to humanitarian residence cards, Polish travel documents, and international protection.

Humanitarian Residence Card

Issued for up to 3 years and fully exempts you from the need to obtain a work permit. This status allows you to legally reside, work, and open a sole proprietorship (JDG) in Poland.

Polish Travel Document for a Foreigner

Since Belarusian embassies have stopped issuing passports abroad, Belarusians can obtain a Polish travel document (Polski Dokument Podróży). It replaces your passport for foreign travel. It is available to those with humanitarian residence, permanent residence, or international protection.

Transition from PBH (Poland Business Harbour)

The PBH program is suspended. IT professionals and PBH visa holders must apply in advance for a standard Residence Card for work or an EU Blue Card. We help you smoothly change your status without losing your right to work.

International Protection (Asylum)

For those facing political persecution, applying for international protection is a secure option. While your case is pending, you can legally stay in Poland, and subsequently gain the right to work and a travel document (Geneva passport).

Comprehensive Legal & Administrative Support

We provide comprehensive adaptation assistance: obtaining a PESEL number, address registration (zameldowanie), vehicle registration and customs clearance, as well as legal support for marriage registration in Poland. Our lawyers will handle all the bureaucracy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

To get a Polski Dokument Podróży, you must have humanitarian stay, permanent residence, or international protection. The application is submitted to the Voivodeship Office. The document allows you to travel freely (except to your country of origin).
The Poland Business Harbour program is suspended. You must legalize your further stay by applying for a Residence Card (Temporary work stay or EU Blue Card) before your visa expires.
Yes, both the humanitarian visa (D21) and the humanitarian Residence Card give you the full right to work in Poland without the need to obtain additional permits.
