Poland: visa decisions in Brazil
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|

In 2025, Poland’s embassy and consulates in Brazil (Curitiba and Brasília) received 10 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 9. Applications rose by 43% compared with 2024 (7).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 23.6% of the applications lodged in Brazil that year, from 16.4% at the consulates of France to 57.0% at those of Portugal. Poland’s consulates worldwide refused 15.8%. Poland was the 12th most applied-for Schengen state in Brazil.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Brazil, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
