FAQ

Providing clarity on our processes, dedicated support, and strategic partnership

Will Incite prepare all documents on my behalf?

Yes. Our full delegation model means that we draft the applications, documents, statements of grounds and covering letters. Your only obligation is to provide the basic data and source documents and to sign the completed package.

How quickly can you obtain a residence card for me?

Through our “Early Submission” strategy — submitting a complete set of documents at the fingerprint appointment — and active monitoring by a Dedicated Assistant, we eliminate administrative delays. Our processes enable decisions to be obtained in the shortest timeframe permitted by law.

How much does the legalization process cost, and what determines the price?

The cost of the service is determined individually following a preliminary assessment of your situation. The fee depends primarily on the purpose of residence (e.g. specialist employment, business activity, studies or family reunification), the number of persons covered by the application and the complexity of the case (e.g. the need to address gaps in historical documentation). At Incite, we apply a transparent billing model — following the initial consultation, you receive a comprehensive quote covering full documentation preparation and case management by a Dedicated Assistant, with no hidden fees.

What distinguishes your foreigners onboarding service?

It is a unique relocation assistance service. We support the new employee or entrepreneur not only with official procedures, but also with everyday adaptation — including obtaining a PESEL number, fulfilling registration obligations and understanding local realities — enabling a faster transition to full effectiveness in their new environment.

Does the service also cover my family?

Absolutely. Family relocation is essential to the stability of an employee’s or entrepreneur’s life in Poland. We manage parallel proceedings for spouses and children, applying the same high standard of comprehensive service and full handling of all formalities.
