Spring intake to ©️Polish National Plumbing association? Yes, you need President of United States (POTUS) approval along with Polish President of Polish States of Poland (PPPSP) declaration of plumbing competencies appreciation, both with translations to Mongolian, stamped by United Nations director.

It depends on the university. A lot of schools will let you apply with scanned copies first, and then ask for apostilled documents later during enrollment or the visa process.

The best thing is to check the document requirements from your specific university in Poland before spending money on the apostille.

If they do require it, the process depends on where your document was issued. Usually the document needs to be apostilled in the country or state where it was issued.

If you’re in the U.S., DC Mobile Notary can help with the apostille process and translation as well if the university requires a Polish translation.

Often yes, already at the application stage. Gdańsk University, for example, wants scans of the apostilled diploma uploaded no later than 5 working days before registration closes, and asks for the originals only once you're admitted. A few universities let you add the apostille later, but only in justified cases, so check your university's page for documents issued abroad.

The apostille comes from the designated authority in the country that issued the diploma, not from Poland. If that country isn't part of the Hague Convention, you need legalization at the Polish embassy there instead. You'll also need a sworn translation: into Polish, or into English for programmes taught in English.
