Nostrification and recognition of documents

Documents such as high school certificates, high school diplomas or higher education diplomas issued in European Union countries are recognized by law. This means that there is no need to additionally confirm their authenticity by Polish institutions or offices. As Poland is becoming an increasingly popular destination to guarantee a high level of education, we would like to help students also coming from outside the European Union. Most documents issued outside this area require confirmation by the education superintendent in the form of administrative proceedings. This process is called document nostrification and allows you to confirm completion of high school, higher education or any other document related to education. Polish universities usually require the presentation of a document before starting studies or in the first months after starting studies. The process itself takes from 2 to 4 months, so it is worth taking care of the documentation in advance.
