Extension of ban on asylum applications at the border with Belarus

The Polish government seeks to extend the ban on applying for international protection (asylum) at the border with Belarus for another 60 days. This means people crossing this border will generally not be able to apply for asylum in Poland, except for vulnerable groups. The decision impacts border security and the situation of migrants.
Key points
The ban on asylum applications at the Belarus border is extended for another 60 days, starting May 21, 2026.
The restriction does not apply to vulnerable groups (e.g., children, pregnant women), who can still apply.
The government argues the border situation still poses a security threat and the ban acts as a deterrent.
