Effective 25 September 2025, Poland has officially partially opened its border with Belarus. This move was announced by the Polish Prime Minister on 23 September 2025.
From 25 September 2025, the road border crossing in Terespol (for personal movement) and Kukuryki (for commercial movement which is permitted exclusively for vehicles registered in the EU, EEA, and Switzerland) are open. Additionally, the rail border crossings in Terespol, Kuźnica Białostocka, Zubki Białostockie (inactive), and Siemianówka are open for commercial movement. Personal movement through open border crossings is still limited and permitted only under specific exemptions (e.g., for citizens of Poland, the EU, Belarus, and Ukraine), as was the case before 12 September 2025.
Poland’s border policy with Belarus has been restored to its status effective prior to 12 September 2025, when the Polish government decided to fully close the border with Belarus.
