🚨 500+ “illegal” cases in Poland — and the year has just begun.
Every single day, officers of the Śląski Oddział Straży Granicznej issue an average of 8 return decisions.
Let that sink in.
📊 Since the beginning of the year:
— 2,166 foreigners inspected
— 512 individuals found without valid documents for legal stay or employment
Just on Monday and Tuesday, officers detained 34 more foreigners staying or working illegally, including:
— 19 citizens of Colombia
— 5 citizens of India
— 2 citizens of Nepal
— 2 citizens of Uzbekistan
— 3 citizens of Georgia
— 1 citizen of Indonesia
— 1 citizen of Vietnam
— 1 citizen of South Korea
⚠️ The message is clear: inspections are systematic, daily, and data-driven.
Poland is not just tightening migration control — it is actively enforcing it.
Are people underestimating how fast the system is moving in 2026?
