PESEL (Powszechny Elektroniczny System Ewidencji Ludności) is a universal identification number in Poland, necessary for work, taxes, medical services, and banking operations.
PESEL UKR is a special status for Ukrainian citizens, introduced as part of the law on aid to Ukrainian citizens (Dz.U. 2022 poz. 583). This status allows Ukrainians to legally stay and work in Poland.
So, the difference between PESEL and PESEL UKR is that PESEL is a general identification number, while PESEL UKR is a specific status for Ukrainians, which provides additional rights and opportunities in Poland.
