Why Polish Citizenship is your Birthright?

Poland follows a citizenship rule that is called "Ius Sanguinis" - the rule of blood. As long as one of your parents has this Polish blood relationship, you have it too. This means generation after generation could've been born outside of Polish borders, and citizenship is still your birthright. In most cases, the families are not even aware of that happening! You just need to make sure that: A) you have a Polish document proof about your ancestors and B) the line was not broken, i.e. no circumstances of losing one's Polish citizenship occurred. The most common are: service in the armed forces or public office before 1951 (the exception being made for Allied service in the 2WW). In some cases, naturalisation or being born in wedlock or not are also deciding factors. Our specialists will help you make sure, just fill in our free survey. Analysis is free of charge.

We follow numerous citizenship laws, legal interpretations, and even older judicial decisions in more complicated cases to make sure your path to Polish citizenship was not broken. We will need some basic data from you, like dates and places of birth, how you are connected, etc. If you do not have any documents, we are more than happy to help with securing those as well. Once everything's ready, we post applications to the Polish government for your citizenship confirmation certificate and your Polish vital records (birth and marriage registered in Poland). Once it's approved, you have everything needed for your final passport visit. It can be done at any Polish Consulate General or Embassy of your choosing. You will not need to undergo the process ever again; from now on, you will just renew your Polish passport. With your Polish/EU citizenship, you can enjoy the Schengen Free Travel area almost all across Europe, and many other privileges of a citizen - you can even vote in national elections. 
Be sure to fill in our survey or contact us in any other way - by email, phone, videocall or contact form. The analysis is free of charge. We will estimate whether you are eligible for the services, give our recommendations, and assist with the document search if needed. Our experienced team will manage all actions here on the Polish side of things, so you do not have to speak Polish or reside in Poland at all, if you do not wish to. Unlock your European future with us!
