Japan-Poland Relations
Closure of the Rzeszów liaison office of the Embassy of Japan in Poland
April 24, 2023
- In response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine since February last year, the Rzeszów liaison office of the Embassy of Japan in Poland was established in order to enhance our efforts including the evacuation of Japanese residents in Ukraine. The Embassy of Japan in Ukraine has been in cooperation with the Rzeszów liaison office for matters such as protecting Japanese residents in Ukraine.
- As a result of a comprehensive review based on the fact that a certain amount of work has been completed our efforts including the evacuation support of Japanese residents in Rzeszów, we decided to close the Rzeszów liaison office as of April 30.
- Furthermore, the Embassy of Japan in Ukraine in Kiev is still operated under limited system based on the local situation and security measures in Kiev. Against this backdrop, the Embassy of Japan in Ukraine maintains a close contact with Japanese residents in Ukraine, but the regular Consular services remain to be handled by the Embassy of Japan in Poland (see contact information below).
