About this list. Partial list: C and D visas, work permits, business, protection and asylum from gov.pl pages (embassy, Office for Foreigners, biznes.gov.pl). Residence permits (Blue Card, study, family, permanent and long-term EU resident) are only described on mos.cudzoziemcy.gov.pl and the voivode sites, which did not connect, so they are not listed.
