À propos de cet audio

Poland is considered one of the safest travel destinations in Europe for 2025. The U.S. Department of State continues to assign Poland a Level 1: Exercise Normal Precautions advisory, reflecting very low risk for international travelers. The Australian government also recommends exercising normal safety precautions in Poland, confirming a stable and welcoming environment for visitors. Poland’s cities, historical sites, and vibrant culture remain open to tourists without significant restrictions or official warnings.

However, listeners should be aware of a few practical travel precautions. Demonstrations have occurred with some frequency in major cities such as Warsaw and Krakow throughout May and June. While these gatherings are generally peaceful, travelers are advised to avoid large crowds and demonstrations, as even peaceful events can change unexpectedly. It’s wise to stay informed through local news and embassy updates.

A global caution alert was issued in late June due to heightened international tensions. Although there are no specific or credible threats directed at Poland, officials urge travelers to remain vigilant about their surroundings, stay informed, and register with their embassy when abroad.

Travelers planning to drive in Poland should note the country has one of the highest road fatality rates in the European Union. Roads may be narrow, under construction, or poorly lit, particularly in rural areas. Pedestrian accidents are a notable risk, especially after dark. If listeners intend to drive, a valid U.S. driver’s license complemented by an International Driving Permit is required and must be obtained before arriving. For longer stays beyond six months, a Polish driver’s license is necessary. Public transportation is efficient and safe, but always ensure tickets are validated when boarding buses or trams to avoid fines.

Taxi and rideshare services are widely available. Always use registered taxis with proper identification or reliable rideshare apps. Unlicensed taxis found outside airports and city centers should be avoided for safety and to prevent overcharging.

Additional advisories remain in effect regarding travel near the border with Ukraine. Listeners are strongly advised not to cross into Ukraine from Poland due to ongoing conflict and special entry conditions.

Drink spiking has been reported on rare occasions. Exercise caution in nightlife venues and never leave drinks unattended.

Emergency services are available nationwide by dialing 112 for fire, medical, or police assistance. By adhering to these practical guidelines and staying alert, travelers can enjoy the rich cultural attractions and hospitality that Poland offers with peace of mind.
