Getting a Medical Certificate in Poznań
Poznań is Wielkopolskie's capital and one of Poland's major trade-fair and business cities, built in large part around the Poznań International Fair and the corporate and logistics activity that surrounds it. Business travel is a bigger part of everyday life here than in most Polish cities of a similar size, and a fair share of documentation requests — insurance, travel, fit-to-fly — trace back to that.
The city is also home to Adam Mickiewicz University, one of Poland's larger institutions, where illness affecting an exam or coursework is generally handled through whatever process the individual faculty sets.
This runs entirely online, with no premises in Poznań to visit: a doctor registered to assess cases in Poland reviews your case the same way regardless of where in the country you're writing in from. If travelling across the city while unwell is the problem, that's the specific thing this avoids.
A major trade-fair and business city
Poznań's economy is shaped in part by the Poznań International Fair and the business and logistics activity around it, which brings a steady flow of business travel and its own documentation needs.
Adam Mickiewicz University
One of the larger institutions in the country, with its own process for illness affecting exams or coursework — check what your department actually asks for.
Frequent business travel
Fit-to-fly and general medical documentation for travel through Poznań–Ławica Airport after surgery, illness or during later pregnancy. Airline requirements vary, so confirm with the airline directly too.
For statutory Polish sick pay, start with your own doctor
Our certificate is a separate general medical document. If you need the ZUS-linked zwolnienie lekarskie for statutory sick pay, that comes from your own treating doctor through the ZUS ZLA system, not from us.
All Certificate Types Available in Poland
Every certificate type is reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Poland. Choose the one that matches your situation. Our certificates are a complementary option alongside Poland's formal ZUS-linked zwolnienie lekarskie, not a replacement for it. Each request goes through the same core process: an online assessment, a genuine doctor review, and a same-day PDF if the doctor considers it clinically appropriate to issue one.
Sick Leave Certificate
For documenting illness to an employer, school, or institution for purposes outside Poland's formal ZUS sick-pay system, for example freelance/B2B arrangements, a second supporting document for an employer, or short-term absence notes. Not a substitute for the formal ZUS-linked zwolnienie lekarskie required for statutory sick pay.
From €34.99Sports Fitness Certificate
For Poland's sports clubs, school sports, and competitions requiring medical clearance to participate, sometimes requested as a zaświadczenie lekarskie o zdolności do uprawiania sportu. Covers general fitness-to-participate questions asked by club administrators. Valid 12 months.
From €34.99General Fitness Certificate
For gym membership and personal training sign-up in Poland where a health declaration is requested, or where a trainer or facility asks for confirmation you're fit to begin a new exercise programme.
From €34.99General Medical Certificate
For insurance claims, visa applications, legal proceedings, and education-related documentation in Poland, where an institution asks for independent written confirmation of a medical assessment.
From €34.99How It Works in Poznań
Complete assessment
3-5 minutes. Select your certificate type, confirm Poland as your country, and answer relevant health questions honestly and in detail. No payment is taken until a doctor has looked at your case.
Doctor reviews your case
Reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Poland, generally during Poland business hours (9am-6pm CET/CEST, Monday-Friday). The doctor may request more information before deciding whether it's clinically appropriate to issue a certificate.
Receive your PDF
Emailed same day, usually within 30 minutes of approval, with doctor credentials and a verification reference that the recipient (an employer, school, club, or insurer) can check independently.
What a Poznań Medical Certificate Is Used For
General medical documentation
Supporting documentation for everyday situations where evidence of a genuine medical assessment is useful, without needing to have been examined in person in Poznań.
Insurance and travel documentation
Insurers and airlines commonly ask for evidence that a genuine medical assessment took place, particularly around trade-fair and business travel through the city. Check what your specific insurer or carrier requires.
Universities and coursework
Poznań's universities each run their own process for illness affecting exams or coursework. This can support that process, but the department's own requirements are what matters.
Not a substitute for statutory sick-pay documentation
If you need paid sick leave recognised by an employer through ZUS, that requires a zwolnienie lekarskie in the ZUS ZLA format from your own treating doctor — not this certificate.

Poland Legal Snapshot: What Applies in Poznań
Sick-leave and certificate rules are set nationally, so what follows applies in Poznań exactly as it does anywhere else in Poland.
Poland's formal, statutory sick-pay certificate is called a zwolnienie lekarskie (a medical leave certificate). It is generally issued electronically, in the ZUS ZLA format, by a doctor or dentist authorised by ZUS to issue it (most often your own treating doctor) directly to ZUS (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych, Poland's social insurance institution) and to your employer. This formal document is generally tied to an examination within the Polish healthcare system; it isn't something an online-only service can issue on ZUS's behalf. Our online general medical certificate is a separate, complementary document intended for purposes such as insurance, visa applications, legal matters, education, sport, and travel, rather than a replacement for the formal ZUS-linked zwolnienie for statutory sick pay. If your only need is documenting illness to your employer for statutory Polish sick pay, the usual route is generally your treating doctor issuing a zwolnienie lekarskie through the ZUS ZLA system. Freelancers and B2B contractors operating outside a standard employment contract may face different documentation expectations than employees covered by ZUS, so it's worth checking directly with your client, insurer, or the relevant institution about what they will actually accept before relying on either type of certificate. In everyday English this is often just called a doctor's note for Poland, even where the official local term differs.
| Local document name | Zwolnienie lekarskie, commonly issued in the electronic ZUS ZLA format. The informal, colloquial term used in everyday conversation is "L4." |
|---|---|
| English translation | Medical leave certificate, generally used for statutory sick-pay purposes |
| Who typically issues it | A doctor or dentist authorised by ZUS to issue e-ZLA certificates, most often your own treating doctor, after examining you directly |
| How it's typically submitted | Generally transmitted electronically by the issuing doctor directly to ZUS and to your employer, without you needing to hand over a paper form yourself |
| Governing institution | ZUS (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych): Poland's social insurance institution, which administers statutory sick pay |
| Data protection law | RODO: the Polish name for the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) itself, which applies directly in Poland |
Note on our certificates: GetMedicalCertificate does not issue the formal ZUS-linked zwolnienie lekarskie and cannot transmit anything directly into the ZUS ZLA system. Our general medical certificate is intended for other purposes, such as insurance, visa, legal, education, sport, and travel documentation, where a doctor's review and a signed PDF are what's requested, rather than statutory sick pay through ZUS. If your only need is documenting illness to your employer for statutory Polish sick pay, the formal route is generally through your own treating doctor's zwolnienie lekarskie, and it's worth speaking to your employer or HR contact first about which document they actually expect to see.
Our Poland Medical Team
Every Poland certificate is reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Poland. A clinician will only issue a certificate after assessing your case and if it is clinically appropriate to do so. If not, you receive a full refund. Our doctors review your case for the purpose you've requested, such as insurance, visa, legal, education, sport, fitness, or travel documentation. They do not issue Poland's formal ZUS-linked zwolnienie lekarskie, which is generally handled by your own treating doctor within the Polish healthcare system.
Registered practitioners, not a call centre.
Every doctor is independently verified against their national medical council before they see a single patient - including for patients in Poznań.

No. The assessment is completed online and reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Poland, so where you are in the country makes no difference to the process or the price. This page exists because people search for their own city, not because the service works differently in Poznań.
Our certificate is €34.99 flat, which includes the doctor's review, the PDF and its verification reference. A private doctor visit in Poland commonly falls in the €50-€120 range depending on the type of consultation. That said, a certificate is not a substitute for care: if you need to be examined or treated, see a doctor.
No, and it's worth being clear about that. Poland's formal, statutory sick-pay certificate — the zwolnienie lekarskie, commonly called an L4 — is normally issued electronically by your own treating doctor directly into the ZUS ZLA system, tied to ZUS and your employer. Our certificate is a separate, complementary general medical document, for insurance, visa, education, sport or travel purposes. If you specifically need statutory Polish sick pay, the usual route is your own treating doctor, not us.
Yes, fit-to-fly is one of the certificate types we assess. Airline requirements differ and depend on how recent your surgery, illness or pregnancy stage is, so check the airline's stated policy and tell us what it asks for — the review is against that policy rather than a generic template.
