Oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy jest gotowe.

Oświadczenie means a statement, declaration, or in legal contexts often a formal notice.

In this sentence, it sounds formal and legal/administrative, not very casual. A native speaker would most likely understand it as something like:

• a formal declaration
• an official written statement
• a notice submitted for legal purposes

So in this context, oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy is not just any “statement,” but specifically a formal declaration of withdrawal from a contract.

It is a normal Polish word, but this whole phrase is especially common in legal, business, and consumer-rights language.

Because the preposition o in the sense of about / concerning requires the locative case.

The base noun is:

• odstąpienie = withdrawal / rescission

Its locative singular form is:

• odstąpieniu

So:

• o odstąpieniu = about / concerning the withdrawal

This is a very common pattern in Polish:

• książka o historii = a book about history
• informacja o zmianie = information about a change
• oświadczenie o odstąpieniu = a declaration concerning withdrawal

So the ending changes because of the case required by o.

Because odstąpienie regularly combines with the preposition od, and od takes the genitive case.

The dictionary form is:

• umowa = contract, agreement

The genitive singular form is:

• umowy

So:

• od umowy = from the contract

This is a fixed legal expression:

• odstąpienie od umowy = withdrawal from a contract

You should learn it as a chunk, because the combination is standard Polish legal usage.

It is related, but in legal language it is more precise than the everyday English word canceling.

Odstąpienie od umowy usually means something like:

• withdrawal from the contract
• rescission
• in some consumer contexts, exercising the right to back out of a contract

In plain English, people may simply say cancel the contract, but Polish legal wording often prefers odstąpienie od umowy because it is more exact.

So yes, it is often translated loosely as contract cancellation, but the Polish phrase has a more specific legal flavor.

Because gotowe has to agree with oświadczenie, and oświadczenie is neuter singular.

In Polish, adjectives agree with nouns in:

• gender
• number
• case

The noun here is:

• oświadczenie — neuter singular

So the adjective must also be neuter singular:

• gotowy — masculine
• gotowa — feminine
• gotowe — neuter

That is why the sentence says:

• Oświadczenie ... jest gotowe.

Compare:

• Dokument jest gotowy. = The document is ready. (dokument is masculine)
• Umowa jest gotowa. = The contract is ready. (umowa is feminine)
• Oświadczenie jest gotowe. = The declaration is ready. (oświadczenie is neuter)

Jest is the 3rd person singular of być = to be, and here it means is.

So:

• jest gotowe = is ready

In normal standard Polish, you usually keep jest in this kind of sentence.

• Oświadczenie jest gotowe. = normal, complete sentence

You might occasionally see omission in very special styles, like notes, headlines, labels, or very clipped speech, for example:

• Oświadczenie gotowe.

But that sounds more elliptical, like a status note rather than a full neutral sentence. For learners, the standard version is definitely:

• Oświadczenie ... jest gotowe.

Yes, very much so.

Several things make it sound formal:

• oświadczenie is a formal noun
• odstąpienie od umowy is legal/administrative wording
• the whole phrase sounds like something from a form, office, company, or legal document

A casual everyday conversation would often use simpler wording if the exact legal phrase was not important.

For example, in everyday speech people might say something more like:

• Pismo do rezygnacji z umowy jest gotowe — depending on context
• or they might rephrase the whole idea more naturally in conversation

But if the speaker means the actual legal document, this sentence is perfectly natural.

The structure is:

• Oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy = the subject noun phrase
• jest = is
• gotowe = ready

So literally:

• [The declaration of withdrawal from the contract] [is] [ready].

Inside the subject phrase:

• oświadczenie = declaration
• o odstąpieniu = concerning withdrawal
• od umowy = from the contract

So the phrase is built step by step like this:

1. oświadczenie = declaration
2. oświadczenie o odstąpieniu = declaration concerning withdrawal
3. oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy = declaration concerning withdrawal from the contract

No. In this sentence, odstąpienie is a noun, not a verb.

It comes from the verb:

• odstąpić = to withdraw, to step away, in legal contexts to rescind/withdraw from

The noun odstąpienie is a verbal noun, something like:

• withdrawal
• rescission

Polish uses these verbal nouns very often in formal style, especially in official documents.

So:

• odstąpić od umowy = to withdraw from the contract
• odstąpienie od umowy = withdrawal from the contract

English can do the same with pairs like:

• to decide / decision
• to withdraw / withdrawal

Yes, Polish word order is fairly flexible, but the original order is the most neutral.

Neutral version:

• Oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy jest gotowe.

Other orders are possible, but they may sound marked or stylistically different. For example:

• Gotowe jest oświadczenie o odstąpieniu od umowy.

This is grammatical, but it sounds more formal, literary, or like you are emphasizing gotowe.

For learners, it is best to use the original order unless you have a specific reason to change the emphasis.

Yes.

Umowa is often translated as:

• agreement
• contract

Which English word is best depends on context.

In everyday speech, umowa can be many kinds of agreements, formal or informal. In legal, business, and consumer contexts, contract is often the best translation.

So in this sentence, because the whole phrase is legal/formal, contract is usually the most natural translation.

Usually, yes.

In this context, jest gotowe most naturally suggests that the declaration/document has been prepared and is now ready to use, sign, send, or submit.

So it often implies something practical like:

• the text has been written
• the form has been filled out
• the notice is prepared

It could refer to a digital or printed document; Polish does not specify that here. The important point is that the formal declaration is ready.
