A Polish language certificate from Examinizer shows your CEFR level, from A1 to C2, based on a 25-question adaptive test you take online. Grammar, vocabulary, and reading questions adjust in difficulty as you answer, placing you at your actual level in about 25 minutes. Your result appears instantly, and a PDF certificate with a QR verification code costs €8.
What the Certificate Proves
The certificate states a single CEFR level for your general Polish ability, based on grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension answers from the adaptive test. It does not separate speaking, writing, listening, and reading scores the way the state certificate exam does. It gives one clear number on the six-point CEFR scale.
Every certificate carries a QR code linking to a verification page, so anyone who receives your PDF can confirm Examinizer issued it and check the date. A working verification link separates a genuine result from an edited screenshot.
Who Accepts It
Recruiters use it as a quick screening signal on a CV or LinkedIn profile, especially where Polish helps but isn't the core qualification. Language schools sometimes use it for placement, and it works as a personal benchmark before an official exam.
It is not a substitute for the state certificate exam in any situation where a university, employer, or immigration office names it as a requirement. That exam is accredited by the State Commission for the Certification of Proficiency in Polish; Examinizer is not. If an application names the state exam, this certificate will not satisfy it.

Common Questions About the Polish Language Certificate
No. The state certificate in Polish as a foreign language, organized by the State Commission for the Certification of Proficiency in Polish, is proctored and accredited, recognized for citizenship and some university admissions, and costs roughly €100 to €200 depending on the level. Examinizer's certificate comes from a free, unproctored 25-question adaptive test finished in about 25 minutes, with the PDF costing €8. Use the state exam when an institution names it by name.
Polish citizenship and long-term residency applications that require language proof typically specify B1 from the state certificate exam. Examinizer's certificate does not carry that accreditation, so check the exact requirement listed for your application type.
Some programs taught partly in English accept a general proficiency signal, but degree programs taught in Polish typically require the state certificate exam at B1 or B2. Check the specific university's admission requirements before assuming this certificate will be accepted.
The test adapts question by question, so a correct answer triggers a harder question and an incorrect one triggers an easier question. After 25 questions on grammar, vocabulary, and reading, your answers map to a CEFR level from A1 to C2.
Many recruiters treat it as a quick screening signal on a CV, particularly for roles where Polish helps but isn't the core requirement. It won't satisfy an immigration process or job posting that names the state certificate exam specifically.
