As of 17 July 2021 all persons arriving in Poland by plane, before clearance must first fill out what is known as a Traveler Location Card. This Card may be filled out in electronic or hardcopy form.

The data on the Card are conveyed to the State Sanitary Inspectorate. Collecting data is supposed to limit the spread of the coronavirus. If an infected person is on board a given plane, this Card will make it possible to reach all of the passengers traveling by that plane quickly.

We would remind you that limitations are still in force when it comes to crossing the Polish frontiers. According to the general rules, after crossing the border one should undergo a 10-day quarantine in the designated place of residence. The following persons do not have to undergo a quarantine:

• persons who have been fully vaccinated with one of the vaccines approved for use in the EU at least 14 days prior to crossing the Polish frontier;
• persons who have completed isolation on account of COVID-19 no longer than 6 months prior to crossing the border;
• persons who are returning to Poland from another Schengen country and have a negative test result concerning the presence of COVID-19 performed within 48 hours prior to crossing the border, counting from the moment of obtaining the test result.

In every one of these instances, persons crossing the border are obligated to present a document confirming their quarantine exemption to the Border Guard officer.
