The diia.pl electronic document is important when entering Poland.
Ukrainian refugees must present diia.pl. when crossing the border with Poland in order not to lose their UKR status. However, this is possible only if the trip to their homeland lasted less than 30 days, is lost automatically.
This was reported by the Embassy of Ukraine in Poland.
“In order to avoid losing the PESEL UKR status due to leaving the territory of Poland for a period of less than 30 days, a foreigner returning to Poland must inform the Border Guard officer in charge of passport control of his intention to enter due to the use of the right of temporary protection in Poland and each time show the electronic document diia.pl (even if a foreigner goes to work in Poland or for other purposes, but at the same time he will enjoy protection in Poland)”, the message says.
The Embassy emphasized that if a refugee returns to Poland and does not show diia.pl at the border or does not say that he wants to use the relevant special statute, the person may lose benefits. The reason is that the data of a foreigner will not be included in the registers, on the basis of which the PESEL UKR status is granted, and is associated with numerous social rights.

Recall that psychologists said that Ukrainians arriving in Poland after the war experience excessive stress, experience post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and have difficulty adapting to new conditions in the neighboring country. Ukrainian refugees need psychological and even psychiatric support, because they live in constant fear.
As reported, in Poland, 61% of Ukrainian refugees are still unemployed. Find a job for them fail due to insufficient knowledge of the Polish language, the lack of offers corresponding to their qualifications, as well as the lack of part-time offers.
