My grandparents were married in Poland. They fled for UK in WW2. They have both passed away now leaving 3 sons, 1 of which is my dad who married my mum (scottish).

I have a UK passport but also wondered if I qualified for a Polish passport. Anyone know?

My granddad was Polish and left just after WW2. From this I was able to get citizenship and a passport. I had plenty of supporting documentation, e.g. Birth certificates, work records, church records, etc..

Of course, there are other factors you need to take into consideration, e.g. Did your grandparents renounce their citizenship, etc.. Best thing to do is just contact the Polish consulate/embassy with any evidence you have (birth certificates, work permits, etc..)
