Hello! I'm with my grandson (13 years old) going to New Year's holidays in Belorussia (Brest), to relatives. I would like to go with him on an excursion from Belarus to Poland. Tell me, please, do I need a visa when traveling from Belarus to the Russians and if necessary, how do you arrange it, what is needed for this? We have a grandson with a grandson.

Answer Marat Usov
Russians, when entering the Republic of Poland, it is necessary to issue an entry visa, regardless of the country from which the border crosses. $

You can find the fineness of visa processing on one of our pages "Visa to Poland."

If you are going to buy a tour package in a Belarusian company, then, as a rule, all the visa formalities will be handled by the firm itself. But keep in mind that to open a visa for citizens of the Russian Federation in Minsk, you must provide the original residence permit in Belarus. Without it, a visa must be opened on the territory of the Russian Federation, which will lead to a price change.

In your case, by buying a tour and arranging documents for entry to Poland, I would attend now.

If the German residence permit is valid, there should be no problems with the trip. However, a new Polish visa can not be issued in such a passport, since the validity of the document in which a visa is issued can not exceed 10 years.
