One of the tasks of the Consular Department is to oversee the performance of duties by the consuls of the Republic of Poland. The Department’s representatives participate in implementing and defining the rules of foreign and EU cooperation in the field of consular affairs, with a focus on the movement of people, visa policy, migration policy, and consular assistance. An important part of the Department’s work is concerned with analysing national legislation in terms of its impact on the scope and way of performing consular activities. Moreover, the Department initiates and conducts negotiations concerning international agreements on consular affairs.

The MFA Consular Department includes the Consular Information Centre, which provides an effective hotline service to Poles in Ireland, the Netherlands, the UK, France, Spain, Norway and Italy.
