To drive for Bolt/Uber/FreeNow in Warszawa you need: a taxi transport licence (licencja na taksówkę — the fleet's or your own), a Polish Category B driving licence, a rental agreement or your own car, medical and psychological exams, and a niekaralność (criminal-record) certificate. Since 17 June 2024 the platform checks for a licence issued in Poland, so a foreign one has to be exchanged first — EU/EEA holders without an exam, and Ukrainian, Belarusian and Georgian licences also without an exam, as those countries are parties to the road-traffic conventions. The operator verifies the driver's identity in person. Fleets usually provide a ready wypis for the car.
