Can my spouse and children join me in Poland on an EU Blue Card?

One of the main advantages of the Blue Card is easier family reunification. Your spouse and dependent minor children can apply for temporary residence permits to live with you in Poland, and the process is generally smoother than for many other permit categories.

Family members who are granted residence on this basis can also access the Polish labour market, meaning your spouse can generally work without needing a separate standalone work permit. You will need to provide proof of the relationship, such as marriage and birth certificates, and show that you can support the family.
