It is now clear how a copy of an employment contract with a foreigner may be submitted to the Ministry of the Family, Labour and Social Policy (MRPiPS)

The start of June saw the entry into force of the Act on the Conditions Permitting Foreigners to Work in the Republic of Poland, dated 20 March 2025. The Act requires employers to provide the Ministry with copies of contracts that have been concluded with any foreigners, before such persons may be allowed to work based on a declaration assigning work to them or a seasonal work permit.

Until now, however, there was no technical means for transmitting copies of such contracts. But from 1 July 2025 employers may send the required documents via the praca.gov.pl website (in the section “Electronic services - employment of foreigners”, in the tab Transferring a copy of a contract with a foreigner).

Failure to submit a copy of the contract may mean that the person responsible could be fined PLN 1,000–3,000.
