Visa Waiver Program/ESTA
3 MINUTE READ

Poland has been formally designated as a member of the Visa Waiver Program.  In most cases Polish citizens can travel to United States without a visa for short tourism and business trips of 90 days or less.  Travelers must have a valid Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) approval prior to travel.  The official website for ESTA, including completing an application, is https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/.  Any traveler who is not eligible for ESTA may apply for a U.S. visa at a United States embassy or consulate.  When traveling for purposes other than tourism or business, travelers should have a visa of the appropriate category.

Please see https://www.ustraveldocs.com/pl/en/visa-waiver-program for additional information about visa-free travel to the United States for Polish citizens.  Travelers may obtain general information about the Visa Waiver Program at https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/tourism-visit/visa-waiver-program.html.
