Collecting your certificate

Once the certificate has been prepared, a member of CNJO staff will e-mail the applicant with information about collection and the nearest available dates.

Certificates can be collected from the CNJO office at 8 Oboźna Street, room 109, 1st floor. As a rule, certificates should be collected in person.

When collecting the certificate, the applicant checks that the information is correct and confirms this with their signature. If any discrepancy is identified, CNJO will prepare a corrected certificate. Applications and uncollected certificates are retained for five years and then destroyed.
