From midnight Saturday 14 March, foreigners will not be permitted entry into Poland. This will apply until 24 March and may be extended further. All returning residents and citizens will have a 14 day quarantine enforced. Schools, museums, cinemas, restaurants and bars will be closed, and gatherings of more than 50 people will be banned. You are permitted to leave Poland, but be aware many flights are being cancelled. If you wish to leave, confirm your flight as soon as possible.
