Our Consular Section suspends the reception of consular applicants
14.03.2020
Due to the epidemiological threat of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, with the aim of limiting the risk of virus spread and taking into account the countermeasures imposed by the Egyptian and Polish authorities, the Consular Section of the Polish Embassy in Cairo will stop admitting applicants starting from March 15, 2020 until further notice.
The above applies to the admittance of new applications. The collection of documents in cases already submitted will be scheduled individually.
The reception of consular applicants will be limited solely to justified and urgent cases, with priority given to Polish citizens in situations requiring immediate reaction.
During the period when the abovementioned preventive measure is in force, all appointments registered in the e-Konsulat system are canceled and new appointments will not be added to the system.
The Consular Section will contact all registered applicants informing them that their visits have been canceled. Once the ordinary organization of the office's work is restored they will be contacted about the possibility to submit their cases without the need to register again in the e-Konsulat system. This solution will be offered only to applicants who registered their appointments before March 15, 2020 at 12:00 local time. Visits registered later will be cancelled.
