Services for U.S. Citizens Arriving in Poland from Ukraine
After more than six weeks assisting U.S. citizens arriving in Poland from Ukraine, the U.S. Embassy in Warsaw is closing its American Citizen Welcome Center, located at the SPA Gloria Hotel in Przemysl, Poland, on Wednesday, March 30. This decision is based on a declining and currently low level of inquiries and in-person visits to Welcome Center and the enhanced services available at the border from the Polish Government and humanitarian organizations. Information and consular services for U.S. citizens will continue to be available from the U.S. Embassy in Warsaw and the U.S. Consulate General in Krakow (contact information below).
Polish Receptions Centers: The Government of Poland has established reception centers for temporary accommodations of people arriving from Ukraine at many locations near the border and throughout Poland and is providing transportation to these reception centers.
- Official information in English from the Government of Poland is available here.
- A map of the Polish reception centers is available here.
- For detailed information on crossing the border, contact the Polish Border Guard helpline at: +48 82 568 51 19.
