Law / Polish American trying to plan a trip to Poland. Help with legalities on entering country. [11]
Ok. So here is my intentions. I was in Poland a long time ago. Probably like 10 years ago. I'm 25 now and I have always wanted to go back to visit. My only problem is this. About 5 years ago I had a felony. It wasn't really a major one, at least not by our standards, just had 2 oz. of marijuana and where I live, anything over an ounce is a felony. So I keep hearing conflicting statements about whether or not you can go anywhere in the schengen zone with a felony on your record. I know places such as Canada and Australia are out of the question. Everyone always tells me to call the consulate or embassy but so far I haven't really gotten a straight answer from anybody. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
