Do you need a visa to visit or live in Poland
The first question you should ask yourself is ”do I really have to bother myself with this entire VISA thing”. If you want to come to Poland for reasons that do not involve residence, work or any other paid activity and your stay will not be longer than 90 days, you might want to check if your country is on the list of countries of which citizens are not required to be in possession of a VISA.
To make sure you are well informed we have prepared the list of countries which citizens DO NOT need a VISA to Poland. If your country is not on the list, that means you DO need a VISA to Poland or there are some specific conditions you need to meet before you can be on the list of people who do not need a VISA.
