In 2007, there are about 40 Nepalese students studying in Poland though many of them came with hope to get entry to other highly paid countries in Europe and work there.
Today, Nepalis, along with other Asian groups, usually work in industry, building, services and finance sectors.

About 121 workers from Nepal had managed to get jobs in Poland through individual channel in 2008 and 2009, in 2015 and 2016 more than 3500 Nepalese had gone Poland through individual and through recruitment agencies according to the Department of Foreign Employment (DoFE).
