Everyone who is not an EU/EEA or Swiss citizen needs a visa to work in Poland. If you are an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen and want to work in Poland for longer than three months, you only have to register your stay in a local registration office. Registering your stay is not a visa application process; it is more of a notifying method to let Polish authorities know that you would like to stay and work in Poland for longer.

If you are working in Poland with a temporary work permit of at least two years, then your family members can apply for polish family reunification. If your family members are granted a family reunification visa, they can live with you in Poland for the duration of your work permit.
