Good day I have a visa under which I entered Poland in July this year, but I did not start working under the invitation for which the visa was issued The question is, do I have an active visa-free regime? Will they let me back into Poland with this visa or visa-free?

Good day I have a visa under which I entered Poland in July this year, but I did not start working under the invitation for which the visa was issued The question is, do I have an active visa-free regime? Will they let me back into Poland with this visa or without a visa?

Good day! If you have a visa under which you entered Poland, but did not start working under the invitation, your visa is still active if its validity period has not expired. However, if you received temporary protection status (Tymczasowa ochrona), you can enter Poland even if you left for a period of up to 90 days, and this will not affect your status【4:1†source】. So, if your visa is still valid, you should be able to return to Poland. If you received temporary protection status, you should also be allowed to cross the border, since you are a citizen of a country where military actions are taking place【4:1†source】. Do you plan to return to Poland in the near future?

I do not have temporary protection

If you do not have temporary protection, your ability to return to Poland depends on the validity of your visa. If the visa is still valid, you can return to Poland. It is important that you do not exceed the stay periods specified in your visa. If your visa has already expired, you may need a new visa to re-enter Poland. The visa-free regime for Ukrainian citizens only applies within the framework of temporary protection, so in your case, the visa-free regime does not apply【8:0†source】【8:1†source】. Do you know when your visa expires?

Plus I work have my own activity

If you have your own business (FOP) in Poland, it gives you the right to work legally. For this, you need to have a PESEL (universal identification number) and register your business in CEIDG (Central Register of Entrepreneurs)【12:4†source】【12:5†source】. Your visa can be a basis for doing business if it is still valid. If you plan to return to Poland, make sure your visa has not expired and that you comply with all conditions for doing business. Do you know what form of taxation you have for your activity?

The visa expires next year in June

If your visa expires in June next year, it is still valid and you can return to Poland. Since you have your own business, it is important that you comply with all requirements for running a business, such as paying taxes and contributions to ZUS (Social Insurance Institution)【12:4†source】. Also, don't forget that when returning to Poland, you may need documents confirming your activity, such as a business registration certificate. Do you plan to return to Poland to continue your activity?

The Polish term for a certificate of business registration is "Zaświadczenie o wpisie do ewidencji działalności gospodarczej" or simply "Zaświadczenie o rejestracji działalności gospodarczej".

The certificate of business registration in Poland is called "zaświadczenie o wpisie do CEIDG". CEIDG is the Central Register of Entrepreneurs, where natural persons conducting business are registered. This certificate confirms that you are registered as an entrepreneur. Do you need help obtaining this certificate or with other documents for your business?

That is, I understand correctly, I will be let back into Poland on a visa, but I need to have proof that I work and conduct my activities.

Yes, you understand correctly! If your visa is still valid, you should be allowed back into Poland. However, to confirm your activities, you should have documents such as a business registration certificate (zaświadczenie o wpisie do CEIDG) and other documents that confirm your entrepreneurial activities. This will help avoid potential questions at the border and confirm that you are legally running a business in Poland. Do you already have all the necessary documents for your return?

Here is the translation: "Is it possible to get a list of necessary documents?"

Here is the translation from Ukrainian to English, preserving the original meaning and markup: Here is the list of necessary documents that may be required for returning to Poland and confirming your entrepreneurial activity: 1. **Certificate of business registration (zaświadczenie o wpisie do CEIDG)** - confirms that you are registered as an entrepreneur. 2. **Invoices/receipts** - documents that confirm your activity and income. 3. **Rental agreement for premises** - if you rent a place for doing business. 4. **Proof of income** - these can be bank statements or other documents that confirm your income. 5. **Copy of passport** - all pages, as well as the original for verification. 6. **Medical insurance** - a policy that confirms your medical insurance. 7. **Confirmation of residence address** - rental agreement or document of ownership. These documents will help you confirm your activity at the border. Do you already have all these documents, or do you need help obtaining them?

Now the next question I filled out the application for a beaten card, and I'm waiting for a visit How long to wait approximately to receive the date and time in Legnica

The waiting time to get a date and time for a visit in Legnica can take up to 60 days, but in some cases, this period may be longer due to the workload of the authorities【26:5†source】. If you are missing documents, you may be sent a request to submit them within 7 days. Therefore, if you have already applied, it is recommended to be prepared for possible waiting. Do you have any more questions about the process of obtaining a residence card?

I haven't submitted yet, I'm just waiting for a letter with the date and time for submission.

Understood! If you have already filled out the application for a battered person's card and are waiting for a letter with a date and time to submit documents, the terms may vary.
