Abstract
The paper presents scale, dynamics and directions as well as main causes and effects of foreign migrations from Poland. It begins with the analysis of the scale of the emigration, followed by the analysis of the immigration of foreigners. The research was carried out in the years 2005–2014. While analysing the causes of migrations, the differences in the level of economic development and incomes as well as general situation on the labour markets in selected EU countries were studied. It is concluded that immigration to Poland is caused mainly by income level, while emigration results mostly from the level of unemployment in the country of origin.
