Poland bilateral social security agreement expansion

Overview

Poland is expanding its network of bilateral social security agreements to protect workers with international careers and facilitate the transfer of benefits.

In August 2026, Poland and Albania finalized an agreement ensuring that Albanian citizens living in Poland have their work periods recognized and social contributions transferred. This pact follows similar agreements Albania has established with several European nations and Canada.

By September 2026, negotiations between Poland and Brazil were concluded. The proposed agreement aims to coordinate insurance periods and transfer pension and disability benefits. It is designed to support businesses by preventing simultaneous social security contributions for seconded employees and to assist the Polish diaspora. Legal experts have requested a detailed impact assessment and the full text of the agreement to evaluate its consequences for the Polish minimum pension system before ratification.
