How fast can you bring foreign workers to Poland?

The stages from order to first shift when bringing workers from Pakistan to Poland, what drives the timeline, and how to plan back from your start date.

Updated 7 October 2026 · For employers in Poland

The short answer

The first batch takes the longest because it runs through the full permit and visa process. After that, extra workers and replacements are planned as a pipeline, so you are not starting from zero each time.

The stages

Every first batch goes through the same stages:

What drives the timeline

The two stages you cannot speed up are the permit decision and the visa appointment. Their timing depends on the voivode office that handles your location and on consulate capacity at the time. Everything else we run in parallel.

Plan backwards from your start date

Tell us the date you need people on site. We work backwards through each stage and tell you in one business day whether the date is realistic. If it is too tight for a full batch, we propose a phased start.

Keep a pipeline

Employers who order regularly keep a rolling pipeline of workers in process. That way peak headcount and replacements are ready when needed instead of starting a new process each time.

You assign the task. We handle everything else. Order Pakistani warehouse and general workers on demand: see how it works or send your order.

Frequently asked questions

Who files the work permit?

We do. You do not deal with the voivode office, the consulate or legalisation.

Can you start a group in stages?

Yes. If your date is tight we propose a phased start so the first workers arrive as early as possible.
