Summary/Abstract: Since June 2004, foreigners and Polish citizens residing permanently abroad may certify their command of Polish as a foreign language with a state certificate of language proficiency. In 2015, the PFL certification system underwent thorough changes. A new Państwowa Komisja do spraw Poświadczania Znajomości Języka Polskiego jako Obcego (State Commission for the Certification of Proficiency in Polish as a Foreign Language) was appointed, and entities authorised for conducting examinations were established in compliance with the amended laws. One of them is the University of Warsaw with the highest number of examinees taking the “new” certification examination to date at four levels (B1–C2). Interest in certifying one’s command of Polish is constantly growing and the aim of this paper is to present the scale of this undertaking in the Authorised Entity University of Warsaw against other examination centres.
