Data from official gov.pl websites, as at 22 October 2026. Before your visit, check the current opening hours on the mission’s website. THE BUSINESS TIME is an independent newspaper – we are not a consulate and do not handle consular matters. The 👍/👎 ratings are given by readers; they concern the service of the missions, not specific people. Photos and biographies of the heads of mission are published by the Polish Foreign Ministry on gov.pl (the licence does not allow reprinting on a commercial site) – link next to each name.

Readers’ reviews

Review rules – read before sending

  • Each author is personally responsible for their post under the law of the country where they live and write from (including, in the UK, the Defamation Act 2013 and, in Poland, Art. 212 of the Criminal Code and Arts 23–24 of the Civil Code).
  • Our assessment the mission’s service, not specific people. Do not give staff names or other people’s personal data.
  • Write politely and factually: date, type of matter, waiting time, whether the matter was resolved.
  • Every review is checked by the newsroom before publication. Offensive, vulgar or untrue posts will not be published.
  • This is not a way to contact the consulate – about your own case, write directly to the mission (addresses above).
