Straż Graniczna

The Polish Border Guard (Straż Graniczna) is Poland’s national service responsible for protecting the country’s borders and carrying out related security and migration duties. Its headquarters website provides information about the organisation’s leadership, structure, powers, recruitment, legal framework and cooperation with other bodies. It also shares news about border operations, arrests, airport interventions and international missions, including joint efforts to protect the European Union’s external borders.

The service’s public resources support travellers and foreign nationals with guidance on entry and residence rules, border crossing, travel documents, transporting goods, temporary protection, international protection applications, employment in Poland and voluntary return. Additional information covers children and pets travelling, Polish citizens abroad, and the Entry/Exit System in multiple languages. The site also offers a map of border crossings and facilities, recruitment and employment portals, public procurement notices, media materials, publications and contact channels. Through its officers and regional units, the Border Guard undertakes enforcement and intervention work, while the website serves as a central source of practical guidance, official announcements and information about the service’s activities.
