    1) register you in our system,
    2) explain matters associated with entry into Poland, including the required documents, and advise about the appropriate migration route that will allow receiving SMA treatment in Poland,
    3) prepare a supporting document to facilitate your border crossing,
    4) assist you with suitable accommodation, including emergency accommodation,
    5) try to help with transport from the border to other places in Poland,
