What happens to my minor children if I am recognised as a Polish citizen?

The recognition route accounts for family situations. When a parent is recognised as a Polish citizen, their minor children can acquire citizenship as part of the process, which keeps the family's status aligned.

Where the other parent is not Polish or not part of the application, consent requirements typically apply, and older children may also need to express their own consent. Because these consent rules can be detailed, gather the necessary parental documents and, where required, statements of consent before submitting your application.
