It depends. Whether you need to retake IELTS for Poland depends on your current IELTS score (if any), its validity, and the specific university requirements.

- IELTS scores are valid for 2 years from the test date. If yours is older, you'll need to retake it.
- Most Polish universities require an IELTS Academic score of 6.0 - 6.5 for undergraduate and 6.5 - 7.5 for postgraduate programs, but some accept other English tests or waivers.
- For a Polish student visa, IELTS is not mandatory, but universities may still require it.

Check your score validity and target university requirements.
