 The International Organization for Migration, IOM, is the leading intergovernmental organization operating in the field of migration. IOM was established over 60 years ago. It currently has over 470 offices in over 100 countries. For over 60 years, millions of people around the world have benefited from support provided by IOM. One of IOM's many activities is to assist in voluntary return and reintegration. Migrants who wish to return to their country are provided comprehensive humanitarian assistance. If you decide to leave Poland and go back to your country of origin, you can benefit from the assisted voluntary return program. The program addresses the needs of migrants who are citizens of countries outside the European Union, who have been refused refugee status, subsidiary protection, tolerated stay, as well as those who reside in Poland without a valid visa or other documents authorizing residence. If you find yourself in this situation, you can ask IOM for assistance in voluntary return home. Remember that your return within the program is voluntary, so you have to decide for yourself whether or not to return. Contact us and tell us about your situation. You'll receive detailed information on how we can help you and the situation in the country to which you wish to return. If you decide to participate in the program, we will prepare and plan your trip and cover the associated costs. We will also provide support and assistance after you return home. You can contact us by phone, email or visit our office in person. By turning to IOM, you can expect free and private communication in a language you can understand. The content of the conversation with our staff is not shared with others. To benefit from the assisted voluntary return program, you need to fill out an application form. This can be done in person at our office or via our website at iom.pl. If you find it difficult to fill out the application form, please contact us. The application form consists of three pages. On the first page, you need to enter your personal details and contact information in order for us to be able to contact you. Please indicate whether you have a valid passport. If you do not have a valid travel document, IOM can assist you in obtaining it. The application form must include all family members who will return with you. If you or someone in your family has health problems or needs medical care, please let us know. IOM will provide care before and during the journey. This also applies to pregnant women. In the application form, you also need to enter the destination address in the country of return. All information submitted by you will be protected in accordance with the IOM's data protection principles. The second page of the form is a declaration of voluntary return. By signing it, you declare that you've made the decision to return. The third page contains a statement of consent for the collection, use and disclosure of personal data by IOM. Granting this consent will enable us to use your personal information to the extent necessary to prepare your trip. To summarise, if you have made the decision to return, please contact us. Call, write or simply visit us. If you cannot afford to come to Warsaw, we'll purchase a ticket on your behalf and send it to you. If, until the date of your departure from Poland, you have no means to support yourself and your destitute, we will provide you with temporary housing, food, clothing and other forms of support. Health-related problems will also be addressed and will not preclude your participation in the programme. If necessary, you'll be provided medical assistance to assess whether or not you can safely travel. If you do not have valid travel documents, we can help you obtain them. We will inform you in advance of the intended date of departure. Itinerary, flight number and transit assistance.

If necessary, we'll provide you accommodation and meals during the course of your journey. We'll provide you medical care if your state of health so requires. At transit points, IOM will support you during onward connections so that you can easily reach the appropriate railway station or airport. In the country of destination, an IOM staff member will meet you upon arrival and arrange your onward travel from the railway station or airport to your final destination. You can rely on our continued support after your return. In addition to a small cash allowance, you may receive reintegration assistance to help you stand on your own feet. Reintegration assistance provides funds for the establishment and operation of a business. Education or vocational training. Depending on your business idea, IOM can supply you with tools, shop equipment, farm animals or hardware or cover the initial costs of starting a business. For those who wish to improve their skills or to study, we offer the possibility of financing vocational training or other forms of education to enhance their chances of finding employment in the future.
