Polish visa center opens in Hrodna (photo)
Polish visa center opened on the first day of spring in the four cities of Belarus. There you can apply for visa without going to the consulate.
In hrodna the visa center opened on March 1, at 9:00 in the morning. Its address (89 Gorky str) coincides with the address of the Lithuanian center, which was opened a year ago. For convenience, the same room was chosen. There are also Estonian and Hungarian centers.
The Acting Consul General of Poland Zbigniew Pruchniak, who was present at the opening ceremony, was visibly pleased and called the date of March 1 historical for Hrodna. According to him, "everything went very well." The center has 19 windows, a spacious room. There you can take a photo, make an insurance and file all the necessary documents. The cost of service is 15 euros, not including the cost of the visa and insurance. The center has toilets, including for the disabled people.
Visa centers were designed to relieve the queues for visas, which are regularly formed in the Polish consulates.
As Euroradio informed earlier, apart from Hrodna, similar centers opened the same day in Brest, Minsk and Homiel. You can still apply for thevisa in the consulate, though.
