Poland to Tunisia visa requirements

Polish ordinary-passport holders do NOT need a visa for Tunisia. They can enter visa-free for tourism and stay up to 90 days (3 months) per visit. No e-visa, no visa-on-arrival, and no advance application is required. Poland is an EU member state, and Tunisia grants visa-free entry to nationals of all EU countries (except Cyprus) for short stays. A Polish citizen holding an ordinary passport may travel to Tunisia for tourism without any visa and stay for up to 90 days (3 months) from the date of entry. Entry is granted on presentation of a valid passport at the border; from 1 January 2025 a national ID card is no longer accepted and a passport is mandatory. The passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure date (6 months if you cannot show a return/onward ticket). Border officers may ask for proof of onward travel and sufficient funds. Tunisia is NOT in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to this route; the 90-day limit is Tunisia's own and resets per visit. Tunisia explored launching an e-Visa system, but as of 2026 the tender failed and no e-visa applies to EU travelers, who remain visa-exempt. Overstaying the 3-month limit incurs a small fine (about 20 dinars per week) payable on departure. There is no visa fee for this route.
