What is the difference between work permits issued by the Governor and permits issued by the Head of Employment Office?

The Head of Employment Office issues seasonal work permits (type S). This type of permit is issued for entities employing foreigners in a selected range of activities in agriculture, forestry and fisheries as well as activities related to accommodation and catering services specified in detail in the Regulation of the Minister of Family, Labor and Social Policy of 8 December 2017 on subclasses of activity according to the Polish Classification of Economic Activities (PKD), in which seasonal work permits for a foreigner are issued. A seasonal work permit is issued for a period of no more than 9 months during the calendar year. The Governor issues work permits for the remaining scope of activities of entities employing a foreigner for a period not exceeding 3 years.
