I don't believe so. Many people I know enter Poland on their Canadian passports, same with US, and the Canadian government website for travel to Poland now has updated info that a dual national can enter Poland either on their Polish or Canadian passport. There was a lot of noise about this years ago because Polish people were having trouble getting in or more likely leaving Poland after using their Can passports.
I'm concerned about entering on my Can because I will be staying longer than 90 days, alas needing to get new Polish passport.

USA, Canada / Traveling to Poland to study. Polish passport question. [11]
Hello, I have Polish and Canadian citizenship and am traveling to Poland for studies soon. I may not get my Polish passport in time (long story-even the temporary may not be ready in time). I am considering entering Poland with my Can passport, applying for my full Polish passport once in Poland and leaving on that one, I know you are supposed to enter and exit on the same passport but I will be staying 6 months so can't leave on the Can one. Has anyone had experience overstaying the 90 days or leaving on a different passport than you entered on? Also, I was considering flying in through Germany (need to have a stop over somewhere since the trip is so long), and am thinking this might solve some of the problem since after the stopover Germany to Poland I might not have to get a stamp in passport entering Poland??
Thanks for any thoughts.
