Questions thatwe are frequently asked

Najem okazjonalny is the safest form of rental agreement for the landlord in Poland. Unlike a standard rental, the owner can, for example, quickly recover their apartment in case of non-payment without a long court process. To conclude such an agreement, the tenant must provide a statement from the owner of a backup residence. Our service consists specifically of preparing and issuing this document. With it, the tenant meets the requirement for najem okazjonalny. The price of the statement is 299 PLN.
According to the Act on the Protection of Tenants' Rights, notarization of the signature is not mandatory. A simple consent from the owner of the backup premises with their signature is sufficient. However, if your landlord requires a notarized version, we can prepare such a consent for 359 PLN.
To prepare the consent for najem okazjonalny, it is sufficient to provide the following data:
Details of all parties to the rental agreement (first and last names of the landlord and tenant),
The duration of the agreement (start and end dates),
The address of the rented property
Delivery details (courier or InPost paczkomat address).
Additionally:
If you have your own consent template (e.g., from a previous landlord or a notary), you can send it to us — we will prepare the document exactly based on your template. Before the final shipment, we always send you a photo or scan of the completed consent for checking and approval (this gives you the certainty that all data is entered correctly). This information allows us to prepare the document quickly, in accordance with the law, and precisely for your needs.
Yes, the sale and purchase of such consent is fully legal. The document complies with the law on the protection of tenants' rights and is one of the mandatory annexes to the najem okazjonalny agreement.
The address is real — it is a real apartment to which we have the legal title. It is not a fictitious address or an “invented” property.
The address and the owner’s details can be checked independently in the electronic Land and Mortgage Register (Księga Wieczysta).
No, the tenant cannot move into the specified backup premises at any time.
The backup property owner's consent works exclusively in a formal eviction situation. The tenant cannot independently decide to move just because they provided this address in the najem okazjonalny agreement.
This address becomes relevant only when:
  • the rental agreement is terminated,
  • the tenant does not leave the premises voluntarily,
  • execution proceedings are conducted by a bailiff.

Only the bailiff can then direct the tenant to the previously indicated backup premises.
In summary: the indicated address is not a 'reserve apartment' available on demand. It is strictly a formal procedural security in case of eviction.
