From the beginning of the SWO to the present day, 4,513 visas have been issued to Russian citizens. For the whole of last year about 32,000 visas were issued, including 17,000 work visas, almost a thousand for the purpose of education and 95 tourist visas.

The latter have not been issued by Poland to Russians since late March, when the Interior Ministry issued an order blocking Russian citizens from entering the country for tourist purposes.
