Where to take the state Polish exam for your residence application

Registration rules and open sessions differ from centre to centre

Exam centres are mostly university language departments and specialised schools. Registration is handled centre by centre: some ask you to wait for a confirmation before paying, and some keep a waiting list when sessions are full.

  • Gdańsk

    Akademia Języka Polskiego — Joanna Sławkowska-Marszeniuk

    ul. Lendziona 16/2, 80-264 Gdańsk

    Applications have reached the limit, so watch the school’s website for any places that are released.

    Ask the school which original identity document to bring, the total fees and payment deadline, and how results and the certificate will be provided. Give your details exactly as shown on the document you will use and arrange any required exam accommodations in advance. Confirm the actual exam venue, room and written/oral timetable: Lendziona 16/2 is the school’s contact address, not a separately verified exam venue.

  • Gdańsk

    Akademia Vitas — biuro w Gdańsku

    ul. Wały Piastowskie 1, pokój 612, 6. piętro, Gdańsk

    Submit just one registration and pay only after the separate email confirming your place, not the automatic reply.

    Bring your own pen and follow the written and oral instructions. The written-part guidance mentions a passport or identity card, while the oral instructions specifically require a passport; confirm any alternative document with the centre. The exact venue is emailed two weeks before the exam. For the oral part, the centre says to arrive no earlier than 15 minutes before the assigned time. If you need a VAT invoice, request it on the payment day using the centre’s instructions. Confirm results and certificate collection.

  • Gdańsk

    Uniwersytet Gdański — Akademickie Centrum Języka Polskiego i Kultury Polskiej

    ul. Wita Stwosza 55, 80-308 Gdańsk

    The state exams run separately from the centre’s other language tests, so ask for them by name.

    For an available future session, follow its own registration instructions: submit the form once and make the required payment on the registration day. The centre says confirmation follows within seven days and an invitation with details about a month before the exam. Bring the accepted original identity document: passport, Polish identity card or residence card. Arrange certificate collection or delivery with the centre after results. Report accommodation needs at least a month before the exam.
