First Lady of the Republic of Poland is an informal designation customarily^{[citation needed]} applied to the wife of the president of the Republic of Poland (as so far all Polish president in Third Republic had wives). The First Lady does not hold a constitutional position and there are no political duties associated with the role. However, the first lady sometimes accompanies her husband on formal occasions such as state visits.

The current Polish first lady is Marta Nawrocka.
