Tobiasz Bocheński, a PiS MEP and one of its deputy leaders, unveiled the idea at a party conference in Warsaw on Thursday, confirming earlier reporting by the interia.pl news outlet.
Under the proposal, Ukrainian men aged 25 to 60 who lack legal employment in Poland, including those working illegally, would be deported.
The party also plans to build dedicated deportation centres to handle the process.
"They will have the opportunity to fight for their homeland, so that the horror of this war ends quickly," Bocheński said, adding that Ukraine's victory was necessary for the security of Central and Eastern Europe.
PiS also proposes a central register tracking foreigners' stay in Poland, where breaches of the law, minor offences or failures to meet administrative requirements would flag a person's file and could trigger deportation.
Bocheński said every decision on a foreigner's status would be "conditional and reversible."
'Towards a New Government'
The proposals were presented at a party conference titled "Towards a New Government," also addressed by party leader Jarosław Kaczyński and Przemysław Czarnek, the party's candidate for prime minister.
The announcement comes amid rising hostility towards Ukrainians in Poland. Police data show 180 hate crime complaints filed by Ukrainian nationals in the first half of 2026 alone, up more than 30 percent year-on-year.
The idea has drawn criticism from within Prime Minister Donald Tusk's centrist government, with intelligence coordinator Tomasz Siemoniak saying no such forced measures were planned by the current administration
Polish weekly Polityka has suggested PiS is competing for nationalist voters with far-right figure Grzegorz Braun.
According to Poland's labour ministry, just over 11,000 unemployed Ukrainians were registered in Poland in 2025.
Although the ministry did not break the figure down by gender, estimates suggest most are women.
