Questions

Frequently asked questions

Then the visa is refused: under Article 65 of the Act on Foreigners, a national visa is refused when the applicant lacks the insurance required by Article 25(1)(2)(a).

Only an insurer that provides a 24-hour alarm centre where incidents can be reported, and that has its registered office or a branch in Poland, the EU, an EFTA-EEA state or Switzerland (or meets extra conditions such as a published audit), can issue it (Article 25(1b)).

No. Article 25 of the Act on Foreigners lets you show Polish public health insurance instead, or a travel medical policy that meets its conditions.
