About

Poland is a member of the European Union (EU) and the Schengen Area. For short visits (up to 90 days within) the EU visa policy Regulation (EU) 2018/1806 determines who needs a visa to enter.

If your country is not on the visa-exempt list, you will need to apply for a Single-Entry Uniform Schengen Visa (Type C) at the Polish consulate or embassy in your home country.

Required documents

  • valid passport (issued within last 10 years, valid at least 6 months beyond planned departure)
  • proof of purpose (invitation letter - issued by AATC after paying registration fee)
  • accommodation and financial means (minimum 67 EUR for first 3 days, then 25 EUR per additional day)
  • travel insurance (covering medical emergencies, valid in Schengen Area) (recommended, minimum 30,000 EUR coverage)

Mind that accommodation, food, travel and logistics during the mission are covered by AATC. You need to provide proof of accommodation and financial means for the days before and after the mission (if your flight is few days apart).

How to apply for a visa?

If you do require a visa, you will need to apply for a Single-Entry Uniform Schengen Visa (Type C) at the Polish consulate or embassy in your home country well in advance of your planned travel date. Please ensure you have all the necessary documents ready for your visa application, including an invitation letter from the mission organizers if required.

What if I don't get a visa?

We understand that visa processes can be unpredictable, and we want to ensure that you are not financially burdened in such cases.

If you don't get a visa, we will refund paid amount (both registration and participation fees) upon presenting a valid visa rejection document from the Polish consulate or embassy. Mind that there is payment processor fee that is non-refundable, so the refunded amount will be the total paid amount minus the payment processor fee.

Example: if you paid 300 EUR, and the payment processor fee is 10 EUR, you will be refunded 290 EUR.

This exception applies only if you applied for a visa in a timely manner, allowing enough time for processing before the mission date (at least 30 days before mission start).

Human Centrifuge training

If you are planning to attend Human Centrifuge training, we will not be able to refund the amount if you don't get a visa, because we need to pay for the security background check in advance.
