By How big is the community
The Ministry of External Affairs puts the number of Indians in Poland at 31,300 as of January 2026: about 30,000 Indian citizens and 1,300 people of Indian origin. Many work in IT and business services. Students are a growing share: the Polish embassy in New Delhi counted more than 3,700 Indian students in 2024. Poland had 105,090 foreign students in 2024/25, 8.3% of all students, most of them from Ukraine and Belarus.
India is particularly strong in doctoral schools: in 2021, Indians were the largest group of foreign doctoral students in Poland, about 18%.
