Are you a foreign national and want to buy a house or plot in Poland?
Or maybe you are planning to purchase real estate for your company?
Whether you are buying a property for private purposes or in connection with your business, you usually need
the appropriate permit.
Going through the entire administrative procedure and gathering documents can be a challenge
for you, but you don’t have to deal with it on your own. For years, our law firm has been helping foreigners in matters related to obtaining permission to purchase real estate in Poland. Let an immigration lawyer help you too. As part of our services:
We will help you demonstrate that you meet the conditions for the issuance of a real estate permit and take care of all the paperwork – from checking the legal status of the property, to preparing the documents needed to obtain the permit, to contacting a notary and signing the contract.
If you want to make sure that you will be able to buy a property, but you are still waiting for a permit, our lawyer will help you secure your rights through a preliminary agreement. You won’t have to worry that another buyer will beat you to it and that you will lose the chance to buy your dream property.
It is not always necessary to obtain a permit. We will check whether you are exempt from the obligation to obtain a permit and tell you what conditions you must meet. This will make the entire transaction go more smoothly, without the need to fill out additional documents and launch the entire administrative procedure.
We have been dealing with immigration matters for over 20 years. And although Warsaw, and even more so the Masovian Voivodeship, are areas abundant with lawyers, few lawyers have as much experience in the field of immigration law. At our office located in the Śródmieście district, we help foreign nationals efficiently go through administrative procedures and collect documents enabling the purchase of real estate in Poland – both for private purposes and business purposes. We operate based on the fundamental principles of our law firm, such as honesty, flexibility, and empathy. In order to eliminate doubts and reassure our customers that we stand by the smooth running of the transaction, we stay in touch and keep you informed of progress. This allows us to build a strong relationship with our clients based on mutual trust. Like these principles of cooperation? If so, contact us and tell us how we can help you.
Yes, but they must meet several conditions. They will usually need to obtain a permission to purchase the property. A foreigner may receive it if the acquisition of real estate does not pose a threat to Poland’s defence, security or public order, and is not contrary to social policy and public health considerations. A foreigner must also demonstrate their bond with the Republic of Poland – e.g. by having a residence permit, running a business in Poland or marrying a Polish citizen.
Obtaining a permit to purchase a real estate is not necessary, among others: when a foreigner wants to purchase real estate for residential purposes and has lived in the Republic of Poland for at least 5 years since obtaining a permanent residence permit or a long-term EU resident’s permit, as well as when they are a spouse of a Polish citizen and has lived in Poland for at least 2 years since obtaining a residence permit, and the purchased real estate is to become part of the joint property of the spouses.
