Why You Need a Notary for Poland Documents
Poland authorities — whether immigration, banking, legal, or professional licensing bodies — require that documents presented from Ireland bear the certification of a qualified notary public. A notarial certificate confirms the authenticity of the document and the identity of its signatory. For Poland, this is then typically followed by an apostille or, in some cases, embassy legalisation.

Apostille and Legalisation for Poland
Poland is a Hague Apostille Convention country. Irish documents notarised by Hugh Phelan must be apostilled by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs before submission to Polish authorities, including the Polish notariusz, sąd rejonowy (district court), or Urząd Stanu Cywilnego (civil registry).
