Consular fees are to be paid upon submitting your application at the Consular Section, in cash, in Malaysian Ringgit.

The visa application fee is non-returnable, regardless of the consul's decision. 

Accepted forms of payment: cash. 

The decision on the application is made within 15 calendar days from the date of submission of the application that meets the admissibility criteria. In individual cases, this deadline can be extended up to a maximum of 45 calendar days, especially when further verification of the application is necessary. In justified individual cases of urgency, decisions on applications may be taken without delay.

For citizens of certain countries or categories of travelers, the period required to make a decision on the application may be extended due to the need for visa consultations.

The current list of third countries whose nationals and categories of travelers are subject to visa consultations is available on the website of the European Commission.

By personal appereance.

If the consul, after considering your application for reconsideration, issued a new decision refusing to issue a visa with which you do not agree, you have the right to appeal to the Provincial Administrative Court in Warsaw. The complaint should be forwarded through the consul who made the decision within 30 days from the date of receipt of the decision taken as a result of the reconsideration of the case. When you transfer your complaint to the consul, you do not pay any fee to the consul, but proceedings before administrative courts are subject to fees. So you have to take into account that you will be summoned by the court to pay the court fee. Information on the amount of court fees in the case of filing a complaint with the administrative court and the possibility of applying for exemption from the costs of proceedings and the language of the proceedings can be found on the following page: http://bip.warszawa.wsa.gov.pl/133/wpis-sadowy-zasady-dokonywaniawpisu.html
