Speaking in Zielonka on 22 February, Prime Minister Donald Tusk issued Poland’s strongest travel warning in years, advising nationals to depart Iran “in the next few hours.” The Mining Awareness blog cites government sources who fear airspace closures and limited consular assistance if hostilities intensify in the Gulf.

Companies with engineers at Iranian petrochemical sites or auditors on year-end assignments must initiate emergency-evacuation protocols or risk violating duty-of-care standards.

For travellers who suddenly need transit papers, replacement passports or onward visas, VisaHQ can simplify the red tape. The platform provides Polish citizens with quick, online processing for travel documents to dozens of destinations—vital when rerouting flights through third-country hubs like Qatar or Armenia.

Under Poland’s Consular Law, citizens who ignore a Level 4 “Leave Now” directive may receive only limited crisis assistance. Employers are therefore expected to underwrite private extraction services—typically charter flights via Doha or Yerevan—if commercial options dry up. Mobility managers should also update traveller tracking tools; insurance carriers require real-time location data to authorise medevac coverage.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has opened a 24/7 hotline (+48 22 523 8880) and instructed the embassy in Tehran to compile exit manifests. Exit visas can still be obtained at Imam Khomeini International Airport, but processing times have reportedly doubled as foreign missions crowd the departure hall.
