Key Points
- Poland introduced a new visa appointment lottery system for foreign nationals from select countries
Overview
The government of Poland introduced a lottery system for visa appointments for nationals from countries including Australia, China, India, Kenya, Nigeria, and Turkey. As a result, visa appointments, including work-related ones, will now be allocated randomly.
This new lottery system aims to streamline the visa appointment process and ensure a fair distribution of slots among eligible applicants. However, it also means that applicants must be prepared for potential delays, as appointment availability will be governed by chance rather than on a first-come, first-served basis. To navigate this system effectively, businesses and individuals must stay informed about the latest updates and prepare their documentation in advance.
