PESEL number is a unique personal identification number assigned by Polish national administration. It is required for handling certain legal formalities in Poland. You can obtain your PESEL number at offices of Poznań City Hall. Because of the fact that both the website and application form are available only in Polish language, non-Polish speakers will probably need assistance from a Polish speaker. We will be happy to assist you in preparing your application at the Dean’s Office.
