Poland to Vanuatu
Do I need a visa for Vanuatu?
Polish citizens do not need a visa or any travel authorisation to enter Vanuatu for tourism; the visit is visa‑free for permitted stays. The visa exemption does not permit paid work or study.
Which documents do I need?

Your passport should be valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry into Vanuatu.
Are vaccinations required for Vanuatu?
No vaccinations are mandatory to enter Vanuatu. The official guidance notes an elevated risk of infectious diseases, including malaria and other mosquito‑borne illnesses, and recommends a medical consultation before departure.
Pregnant travellers or those planning pregnancy should follow the recommendations of the Chief Sanitary Inspectorate.
How long can I stay, and can I extend it?
