Consulate-General of Poland in Milan

Overview

The Consulate-General of Poland in Milan serves the Polish community of northern Italy from Via Monte Rosa 6, near the CityLife towers — a district match for a consulate whose eight-region district covers Italy's industrial heart, where most Polish workers and companies in the country are concentrated. The post pairs with the Rome consular office to split the peninsula: Milan takes everything from Piedmont and the Valle d'Aosta across to Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

Visa Services

Italian and other EU citizens need no visa for Poland — Schengen free movement covers them. Non-EU nationals resident in the eight northern regions who need a Polish visa apply through the Milan consulate-general's procedures and booking system; milano.console@msz.gov.pl answers the questions.

Consular Services

Polish nationals across the north use the consulate for passports, civil status, citizenship, and legalisation. Public reception runs Monday to Wednesday and Friday 09:00-13:00 and Thursday 13:00-17:00; phone consultancy keeps longer hours — Monday to Wednesday 09:00-16:00, Thursday 09:00-17:30, Friday 09:00-15:00. Certified mail: consolatopolaccomilano@pec.it; secretariat: mediolan.kg.sekretariat@msz.gov.pl.
