Icelanders of Polish descent

There are estimated to be 10,141 Polish people living in Iceland, or 3.1% of the country's population. Although small compared to the size of immigrant groups in other countries, that makes them the biggest minority ethnic group in Iceland. As of 2010, they represented 37% of immigrants in Iceland.
There have been several different migratory movements of Poles to Iceland. The earliest on record occurred at the turn of the 19th century after Poland lost its statehood. However, for much of the Cold War period most of the Polish population was restricted in their ability to travel outside of communist Poland at all. More recently in 2004, an influx occurred after Poland joined the European Union, thereby easing restrictions on Polish citizens' eligibility to work in other European Economic Area states. In 2006, Iceland's construction industry boomed and Polish workers were increasingly hired to fulfill work demands. Within a year, the number of Polish immigrants in the country increased by 81%. Poland also joined Iceland in the Schengen Zone in 2007.〔 As a consequence of these changes, Poles do not need work or resident permits to live and work in Iceland. The global financial crisis of 2008 incited further immigration to Iceland.〔
Many Poles in the country view their time in Iceland as temporary and show little interest in assimilating to Icelandic culture.〔 The demographic is largely endogamous and insular. Polish Icelanders typically speak Polish, watch Polish television, continue to practice Catholicism and have opened Polish restaurants.〔 A study conducted in 2012 suggested that most Polish Icelanders used the English language more often than Icelandic in their daily lives, found English more useful and often learned it before learning Icelandic.〔 Despite their reluctance to assimilate, however, Poles have not been met with much xenophobia in Iceland.〔
