In Poland, proof of residence is mandatory in many life situations - from opening a bank account to receiving social benefits. The documents that confirm the address vary depending on a person's status in the country.
It is important for Ukrainians to have proof of their address in Poland after the mass migration. Meldunek, rental agreements, certificates from housing administration, or utility bills can serve as such proof. Without this document, it is difficult to obtain certain services and integrate into the society of the country.
