Who needs an MSWiA permit to buy property in Poland?
A foreigner from outside the European Economic Area and Switzerland who acquires real estate in Poland, unless one of the exemptions in Article 8 of the Act of 24 March 1920 on the Acquisition of Real Estate by Foreigners applies. The exemptions do not apply in the border zone.
Can a foreigner buy an apartment without a permit?
Yes, if it is a separate residential unit located outside the border zone (Article 8(1)(1)). In the border zone a permit is required even for an apartment.
Do I need to travel to Poland?
Not for the permit proceedings. We act under a power of attorney, you send documents electronically and we talk by phone, WhatsApp or video. The service is fully remote.
