2026 Polish certification exam — session dates
Last reviewed: April 2026. Session tables follow publicly published schedules — confirm on official sites before registering.
The State Commission for Certification of Polish as a Foreign Language publishes annual examination sessions. Sessions are usually on weekends. The table below reflects the 2026 schedule as widely published by certyfikatpolski.pl and related official information — examination centres may not offer every level in every session.
Registration opens through authorised centres (not through PolishReady). Slots can fill early; check with your chosen centre in good time.
2026 sessions (indicative)

Common questions
- Where do I register for the exam?
- You register with an authorised examination centre (ośrodek), not on PolishReady. Each centre publishes its own registration window, fees, and available levels. Start early — popular sessions fill up.
- Are these dates guaranteed for my city?
- The table reflects the national session weekends published for 2026. Your local centre decides whether it runs a given session and which levels it offers. Always confirm with the centre you plan to use.
- Which level should I take — B1 or B2?
- That depends on your goal (e.g. residence permit, work, study) and your current proficiency. PolishReady helps you practise across B1–C2; we do not issue certificates or advise on legal requirements — ask your employer, school, or a qualified adviser for rules that apply to you.
- Does PolishReady register me or issue certificates?
- No. PolishReady is online exam preparation. The certificate is awarded by the State Commission after you pass the official exam at an authorised centre.
- How can PolishReady help me prepare?
- You get structured practice for all five exam skills — reading, listening, grammar, writing (including handwritten work with feedback), and speaking — aligned with B1–C2. Use our level pages, prep guides, and exercises to build stamina and accuracy before exam day.
