How to get married in Poland? My story with the marriage process as an Algerian foreign woman

[@nabilagrine8167]

Thank you so much for this video ❤❤❤❤🙏 I was searching about this a lot and I finally found something helpful. I actually didn't know about the surname difficulty 😢I don't want my husband to become a Muslim but oh well😅 nothing to do about that. All the best Amina 🥰

[@AminaZalewska]

I am glad that it was helpful, I should’ve published this video way back, better late than never then And good luck 🤞

WOW!!! What a BEAUTIFUL souled woman in every way. Adam is a very lucky man. You have such a great and interesting life story to tell. I literally, just found you today. Please, stay with the no editing. How refreshing....Amina, NEVER come to America... It will ruin that beautiful soul you have. SERIOUSLY!!!!! Men here are looking for, YOU! You are very hard to find these days. Meaning that beautiful souled woman that is feminine. I would love to send you guys a belated wedding gift. I don't see a place that says, buy me a coffee or donate??? I would love to send you guys something. You warmed my heart and gave me hope that there is still such beauty in this world. Please, let me know even if it makes you feel uncomfortable to except something for a stranger. Many hate us around the world, we get it, we still love, LOVE!!! In America, We the People.... are all foreigners and we do embrace the challenges that life brings. Yet, we have each other that are all at one point foreign and in the long run help one another. If that makes sense???? Makes me realize, WE don't have it that bad. I will keep an eye out for a reply to where to send:)

Proud of you ❤ happy to meet you and Adam in Algeria 🎉🎉 Great history i didn't know about it

Thank you for watching

Hey, big congrats on getting married! Really thrilled for you. By the way, I'm an Algerian dude about to get married in Poland, but I'm hitting some bumps too. Since I'm a resident in Germany, not Poland, the Algerian embassy here in Warsaw rejected the non-marriage certificate issued by the Algerian embassy in Germany 😂 You know, if you're rocking an Algerian passport, it's like signing up for the most extreme obstacles in life 😂Jokes aside, huge congrats once more 🎉

[@AminaZalewska]

Omg this embassy just make difficult for algerians (their own people) I hope the bumps get flatter ;)

Urzędnik gminny który ma siano w głowie. To się zdarza u nas za często. Zapominają, że są dla ludzi a nie na odwrót. Popieram i pozdrawiam.

[@ccccvc4728]

A jeszcze, tak jak Cię oglądam to powiem, że delikatnie "przesiąkłaś" naszą kulturą. W mojej opinii to dobrze. pozdr.

I am Moroccan I got married with my polish wife here in Morocco. I sent her our Moroccan certificate of marriage and now almost 3 months and we are waiting for it's registration in warsaw. To can be able to have a aviation to me. To apply for visa Because My passport needs a visa to Poland. I hope is going to be all right to join my wife in Poland and have our life together. I don't know why this registering our Moroccan certificate takes all this time even it's original one from Morocco with Moroccan apostile before I sent it to her.

[@AminaZalewska]

There is a big issue of Polish women getting married with foreigners and they get used for that just to get Polish residency and citizenship. The Polish government tries to limit this, and this can be a reason why it takes them longer to check all and legalise everything.

[@jasonthewalker9212]

Hello , im so sorry you had to go through all that process... But im happy you guys made it through. My fiancée is polish, and im Syrian who lives in Lebanon since was born... I think i could use your help in such matter.. is it possible for me to contact you directly ?

[@vetsurfcampfish1616]

Hi: I just subscribed. I watched the interview about cost of living. I’m planning to move to Warsaw. My main concern is finding an apartment, preferably in center city so I don’t have to drive. Question: Do you do consulting for a fee? Thank you. I’m planning to make my first trip next Spring (March-April 2025). Thanks. Will P.S. I’ve never been to Warsaw. I’m been to Germany and Sweden.

[@AminaZalewska]

Hi hi yes I do some consulting Please reach out to me via email [e-mail]

After two years of Distance relationship we just give up

[@AminaZalewska]

I am sorry to hear that, it can be very hard to maintain

[@dianagalarza858]

I totally feel your experience. I am in the process of waiting for the meeting with the court. My fiancé is polish we started the process in Nov 2022 and it's been already more than 1 year since we gave them all our documents with apostille and translation of my documents, all this time we were only waiting for the court date. As you said, the court requested mexican law and did translation to polish language. Few weeks ago they gave us date of the meeting. It's been one of the hardest and heaviest things I've lived you don't have idea how many times we changed our plans, almost gave up with this waiting but yes if there's love is worth it. Could you share about post wedding? Do you need to get a residence or do you already have it because of work or anything else?

[@AminaZalewska]

Hi Diana Courage to you. While getting married I had a residency card based on work, and after getting married we applied for a new residency card based on marriage (I advice to do it as soon as possible after the marriage) If you know the exact date of your marriage, try to book the appointment for the residency card to be directly after. I got first residence for 1 year and now my second one was for 3 years. I will make a detailed video for that purpose for you.

[@dianagalarza858]

@@AminaZalewska thank you so much, it would be helpful 🙏

[@marekmarek5954]

To quickly obtain Polish citizenship, you only need to know the Polish language at B1 level and pass the language proficiency exam.... All you need is a year of legal residence in Poland and legal employment and permanent place of residence in Poland.

[@AminaZalewska]

Hmmm 🤔 from where is this information?

Wow Amazing history. Im Polish married with Brazilian .We didn't have no any problem. Im so sorry you have to go true all of that. We have in Bialystok Polish Tatars mosque. Im sure they wouldn't make problem to get married there . All the best with Polish bureaucracy.🙄

[@AminaZalewska]

Thank you!

[@wilczek1000000000]

Do you want to share a little bit more how it looked like? I have Brazilian girlfriend and she is now studying in Budapest and we are planning to live together. How did you guys met, in Poland already? And then thr whole process or?

[@meg.h.]

Is your husband a Polish citizen? Also, would the whole procedure be easier if your husband came to Algeria and married you then you moved to poland on spousal visa?

[@AminaZalewska]

Yes he is, I did not need a spousal visa, and No, unfortunatly it would not be easier, because in algeria you need to submit documents to the wilaya and to the police, and they were not sure how long this process would take but minimum 3 months, and staying in algeria for 3 months without even knowing when the document to get married would be released was not the best option either

[@meg.h.]

@@AminaZalewska Oh ok. Thanks for the reply Also, would you be interested in making new updated videos about living frugally in Poland after like 6 months? Because inflation happened and things have changed and I believe people would love to compare how much your spending changed and if your old ways of saving are even possible in 6 months.

Why did you change name to Lucid?

That was my old nickname I used for my social media (maya lucid) with AI and everything I wanted to keep my surname private

I'm curious how many invitations you're going to get.

[@AminaZalewska]

hhhhh already got one XD it never hurts to ask

[@nnnnnn3647]

It's complicated, because there are usually no places for friends and family, and each place costs PLN 500.

[@AminaZalewska]

@@nnnnnn3647 i do not understand

[@nnnnnn3647]

@@AminaZalewska When you organize a wedding, there is always someone from your family or friends that you need to remove from the list, because the number of places is limited. In this situation, it is difficult to invite a complete stranger. Each place costs (service, food, etc.).

[@nnnnnn3647]

Why did she need embassy approval? You are in Poland and you are going to a Polish office.

[@AminaZalewska]

But I am a foreigner, so I need a certificate that I am avale to marry in Poland

[@nnnnnn3647]

@@AminaZalewska Shocking that after leaving you are still dependent on the law of the country you left. did i understand well? You have no right to marry someone who is not a Muslim?
