Passport / Visa

Passport / Visa

Poland can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. International (non-Schengen) travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter the Schengen zone. Citizens of Schengen countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay.

Gdansk Lech Walesa - Airport

Gdansk Lech Walesa - Airport

Gdansk Lech Walesa Airport is about 10 kilometres from downtown Gdansk. It also serves Gdynia and Sopot, as well as the rest of the Pomeranian region. City bus line 210 will get you to the city in about 35-50 minutes. Tickets are PLN 3,40 one way and are bought at news stands or from the driver. There is also an airport shuttle bus (MPA Poland) that takes travellers directly in to the city centre. The journey takes about 25-30 minutes and tickets can be bought on the bus. A taxi rank is situated outside the arrivals hall. A cab ride to the city will set you back slightly more during the nighttime. Beware of private cabs! Stick with taxis that have telephone numbers on the sides and a big light on the roof. You’ll also find rental car agencies in the arrivals hall.

Public Transport

Public Transport

The ZTM operates Gdansk’s local transport system, which consists of tram and bus lines. Tickets can be bought from the drivers or in vending machines and the fares are either based upon number of journeys or travel time so you have to estimate how long your trip will take before buying a ticket. If you’re planning a busy day of sightseeing in the city, splurge on a day travel ticket (valid on all trams, buses and night buses for 24 hours). Don’t forget to validate your ticket by sticking it in one of the orange or brown boxes located all around the stations or on the bus or tram. Commuter rail SKM is a good way to travel between Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot. Trains leave from Gdansk’s main train station, Gdansk Glowny.
