About the honorary consulate in Warsaw
Polish citizens do not need a visa for short tourist stays in the Gambia (up to 28 days), according to the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs; a valid passport is required. Details: Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs – travel advice (in Polish).
Which Gambian office issues passports and visas?
Applications for Gambian passports, visas and official certificates are not processed here but by the Gambian embassy responsible for Poland.
What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by the Gambia and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Gambian citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
