How long do you plan to stay? Where are you from?

The law says that you must register your place of residence within 4 days of entering the Republic of Poland. In practice, if you don't need a visa (this includes people who can enter on the tourist stamp) - you don't have to.

But you still have the 90 day limit to obey. I'm not sure why you're asking about registration when you can't register now anyway - you're illegally in the Schengen zone and cannot legalise your stay now.

Fine and well if you're an EU citizen.

Not a great idea if you're non-EU.
