Poland did not initially open a resident embassy in the Philippines when diplomatic relations between the two countries were formally established on 22 September 1973, with relations initially being conducted through the Polish embassy in Tokyo.

While there was no resident embassy in the Philippines, Poland conducted its diplomatic relations through its honorary consulate in Manila, which was first opened in 1938.

[7] On 23 August 2017, Deputy Foreign Minister Marek Magierowski presented a note verbale to Patricia Ann Paez, the Philippine ambassador to Poland, informing the Philippine government that it would be reopening the embassy on 2 January 2018,[8] and after 24 years of closure, the Polish Embassy in Manila was finally reopened on 4 January 2018.

The chancery is located in the Del Rosario Law Center, in the business district Bonifacio Global City of Taguig, Metro Manila.
