On 4 March 2026, the current special legal framework governing the stay and employment of Ukrainian citizens in Poland is scheduled to expire. At the same time, the Polish government is currently drafting a new law to regulate the legal status of Ukrainian citizens in Poland after 4 March 2026. These upcoming changes will significantly affect employers’ compliance obligations, available employment procedures, and the overall legal status of Ukrainians working in Poland.
Join us for a 60-minute webinar organised by Fragomen Poland on Wednesday 28 January 2026 at 3 pm CET.
The webinar will cover the below topics:
- Rules for extending the legal stay of Ukrainian citizens in Poland after 4 March 2026
- New employment rules for Ukrainian citizens with UKR status and those without UKR status after 4 March 2026, including the possibility of continuing work based on notifications to employment office submitted before the new law enters into force
- Rules for obtaining temporary residence permits and the new CUKR residence cards
- Recommended actions to prepare for upcoming changes — for Ukrainian citizens and their employers
