Service of process in Poland refers to the formal delivery of legal documents—such as summons, complaints, and court orders—to a defendant or respondent.
In Poland, service is typically carried out through court bailiffs (komornik sądowy) or postal/court-directed methods, ensuring legal validity under Polish civil procedure.
