Bye 2025! – Your Roots in Poland report

The year 2025 was a time of intense growth for our genealogy company, strengthening our position as experts and further professionalising our services. Continuing our mission to uncover family histories, we supported hundreds of clients around the world in their search for their ancestors. We consistently combined our passion for the past with reliable formal and legal support, helping thousands of people discover their Polish roots and truly connect their future with Poland.

Confirmation of Polish citizenship – a key service in 2025

The most important and dynamically developing area of our activity in 2025 was the confirmation of Polish citizenship based on origin. More and more people from the USA, Canada, Australia and Western European countries approached us with a desire to formally regulate their legal status and confirm their Polish roots.

Thanks to our many years of experience, advanced archival searches and in-depth knowledge of administrative procedures, we successfully guided our clients through the entire process – from genealogical research and document collection to contact with authorities in Poland. Interest in this service remains very high and continues to be one of the pillars of our business.

Polish Card – step-by-step education and support

In 2025, we also intensively developed activities related to the Polish Card. We helped clients not only to confirm their Polish origin, but also to prepare for consular interviews, complete documentation and understand the rights and privileges resulting from holding a Polish Card.

At the same time, over the last two years, we have been working on a comprehensive educational course on the Polish Card, aimed at everyone, regardless of their place of residence. We plan to publish educational materials in 2026 to provide even more effective support to people of Polish descent around the world.

IP in America – international cooperation and workshops

The year 2025 brought significant growth in our presence in the United States. We strengthened our cooperation with the Piłsudski Institute in America by conducting genealogy workshops, consultations and educational meetings. These activities allowed us to reach a wide audience of the Polish diaspora and strengthened our role as a bridge connecting the Polish diaspora with Poland, its history and the formal opportunities resulting from their origins.

Genealogical journeys – Poland, Eastern Europe and the world

The year 2025 was also a time of intensive genealogical research trips. We conducted archival searches both in Poland and abroad, locating scattered family documents.

We placed particular emphasis on research in what is now Ukraine, conducting advanced borderland studies, including projects on the Meli and Meller families. Direct work in archives and in the field allowed us to reconstruct the fates of families affected by migration, resettlement and the complicated history of the 20th century.

Collaboration with celebrities and media projects

In 2025, we continued our collaboration on international genealogical and media projects, including productions such as Finding Your Roots. Working on the stories of famous people was not only an honour, but also a confirmation of our experience, credibility and the quality of our research.

Our activities and expertise were also featured in foreign media, which contributed to further strengthening the recognition of the Your Roots in Poland brand outside the country.

Social media – record reach and engagement

The year 2025 brought impressive growth in the community focused on family history:

Facebook: over 28,000 followers

Instagram: nearly 10,000 followers

millions of views, reactions and saves…

The most popular were educational and historical series — especially materials about the Polish roots of famous people, old photographs, and the names of ancestors. Social media has become an important tool for us to popularise genealogy and Polish history around the world.

Summary

The year 2025 confirmed that genealogy is not just about the past — it is a real tool for building identity, the future and formal opportunities. We would like to thank all our customers, partners and followers for their trust and support. We look forward with optimism to the challenges and projects that the next year will bring.
