Most African countries treat all EU passports the same way, but some do not (Mozambique and Rwanda, for example). This page uses the rule for Poland.

Health requirements

Yellow fever. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for all arriving travellers (usually from 9 months or 1 year of age).

Malaria. Malaria is present across most of the country. Ask a travel clinic about antimalarial tablets.

Book a travel clinic visit 6 to 8 weeks before departure. Some vaccines, including yellow fever, must be given at least 10 days before you arrive.

Travel advice for Polish travellers

Your own government publishes safety advice and emergency contacts for Benin. Check it before you book and register your trip if your country offers that service: Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (travel information).
