The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland owns the sole authorized online registration system for Polish consulates across the world, known as e-Consulate (www.e-konsulat.gov.pl). Please refrain from using any other websites that provide visa appointments for the Polish Embassy in Islamabad. All individuals who want to apply for a visa are strongly encouraged to exercise great caution when dealing with businesses that advertise that they can help you acquire a visa and charge you money to prepare your paperwork. Pakistani nationals in need of visas are instructed to visit the website eConsulate, where a printable version of the visa application may be found. You must then visit a Polish consulate in your place of origin with the completed document.
