Invitation

Decision

After reviewing the evidence and its possible supplementation, the voivode enters the invitation in the register of invitations, because of which a document called the Invitation is issued.

It should be remembered that this document does not constitute the basis for the foreigner's stay on the territory of Poland, nor the basis for their work, but only confirms the existence of a guarantee to cover the costs of the invited foreigner's stay on the territory of Poland and their return to the country of origin or permanent residence.

If the voivode finds that there is a ground for refusing to enter the invitation in the register of invitations, which may be related m.in.

• with an application for entry by an unauthorized person,

• failure to document the possibility of covering the costs related to the planned stay of the foreigner on the territory of Poland, including the costs of accommodation and food, and to cover the costs of return journey to the country of origin or residence or the costs of transit to a third country that will grant an entry permit,

• with the situation of the invited foreigner themself (in connection with the inclusion of their data in the list of persons whose stay on the territory is undesirable or, m.in, dictated by reasons of protection of security or public order)

- issue an administrative decision refusing to make such an entry. This decision is appealed to the Head of the Office for Foreigners.
