Why us

What you get beyond the paperwork

You can register a company in Poland on your own. The question is how much time and money fixing the mistakes along the way will cost.

The price does not change along the way

Price and timeline are fixed before we start. No “additional costs have come up” halfway through.

We work without prepayment

We charge nothing for the consultation or for choosing the right setup. You pay once the work is done — the company is in the register or the bank account is live.

We work remotely

Our clients are usually based outside Poland and are non-residents. Most of what we do is handled remotely and requires no personal visit.

We know where you will be refused

We know the practice well enough to flag in advance what needs attention so that the bank does not refuse your account application.

Office in Poland

Our company is based in Poland and we deliver every service ourselves, without intermediaries or outsourced local lawyers.

We stay on after registration

Accounting, KRS amendments, apostille, VAT, address renewal, help with a frozen account — whenever you need it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to travel to Poland?

Not for the company registration. Almost every step runs online through the S24 system once you have an e-signature, which we arrange remotely. A trip may only be needed to sign the bank agreement — and not always: some banks open accounts by notarised power of attorney.

What documents do you need from me?

A valid passport with at least 6 months left, a correspondence address in Poland (a virtual office works and is included in the Standard and Turnkey packages) and an e-signature. If the founder is a legal entity, notarised copies of its corporate documents with a sworn translation into Polish are also required.

Sp. z o.o. or JDG — which should I choose?

A JDG is registered within a day and needs no complex accounting — it suits freelancers and small businesses, but the owner is liable with personal assets. An Sp. z o.o. is the equivalent of a limited company with minimum capital of PLN 5,000, limited liability and more credibility with counterparties. Foreign founders and any business with real turnover usually choose the Sp. z o.o.

What does it cost to run the company?

The main recurring costs are accounting, renewing the registered address and bank account maintenance. Corporate income tax for small businesses in Poland is 9 %, one of the lowest rates in the EU. Exact figures depend on turnover and transaction volume — we calculate them during the consultation.

What is a PESEL and why is it needed?

PESEL is the Polish personal identification number. It is not mandatory for company registration, but without it you cannot obtain an e-signature in the Polish system, and most banks will not accept a corporate account application. We arrange it remotely and it is included in the Turnkey package.

Can I set up a company as a citizen of Ukraine or Belarus?

Yes. Citizenship does not restrict company registration in Poland and no residence permit is required. The difficulties start at the banking stage: requirements for foreign beneficial owners differ from bank to bank. We select a bank that works with your profile in advance and secure pre-approval.

How long does the whole process take?

Registration through S24 takes 1–3 days once the e-signature is in place. A shelf company is transferred within an hour. Arranging a PESEL and an e-signature takes 2–5 days. Opening a bank account takes 1–3 days in person or 2–3 weeks remotely. In total: one day to three weeks, depending on the package.

What if the bank refuses to open the account?

A refusal from one bank does not mean refusal everywhere — each has its own risk criteria. We analyse the likely reason: registered address, business activity, ownership structure. We remove it where possible and apply to a bank with a better-matching client profile. That is exactly why we obtain pre-approval before the visit.

Not sure which option is yours?

Why registering a company in Poland is the right decision for your business

Poland ranks sixth in Europe in terms of economic volume and is one of the most dynamically developing markets in Central Europe. A company in Poland means direct access to the EU market with its 447 million consumers. Thanks to its advantageous geographical location, developed infrastructure, and stable banking system, Poland attracts foreign investors from all over the world. You will be able to legally conduct business in the EU, benefit from international trade agreements, and build long-term partnerships with European counterparts.

The process of registering a limited liability company in Poland – key steps

To open a company, you need to choose a legal form (the most popular is Sp. z o.o. – a limited liability company), prepare incorporation documents, submit an application to the National Court Register (KRS), obtain a tax identification number (NIP) and a statistical number (REGON), as well as open a corporate account with a Polish bank. Our team supports clients at every stage, ensuring compliance with all legal formalities and deadlines. The good news is that virtually all registration steps can be completed online (using a qualified electronic signature) without the founder’s personal presence.

What documents are required to open a company?

To open a company in Poland, a foreign entrepreneur only needs a valid passport (with at least 6 months of validity remaining), a correspondence address in Poland (it is sufficient to provide a virtual office address), and a qualified electronic signature. If the founder is a legal entity, notarized copies of the incorporation documents along with sworn translations into Polish will be required. We help prepare the full set of documents, verify their compliance with Polish legal requirements, and submit them to the appropriate authorities – so you avoid mistakes and delays when registering a company in Poland.

How to choose the optimal business structure in Poland

When opening a company in Poland, it is important to choose the right legal form. For small businesses and freelancers, Jednoosobowa Działalność Gospodarcza (sole proprietorship) is suitable – it is registered in the CEIDG register within 24 hours and does not require complex accounting. For medium and large businesses, as well as companies with foreign participation, Spółka z o.o. (LLC) with a minimum share capital of PLN 5,000 is the optimal choice. This form of company registration in Poland ensures limited liability for shareholders and a high level of trust from counterparties. We will help you choose the right option based on your business specifics and long-term goals.

Opening a company in Poland is a strategic decision that opens up numerous opportunities for entrepreneurs. Poland offers one of the lowest corporate income tax rates among EU countries – 9% for small businesses. Furthermore, the country is part of the Schengen Area, which facilitates business travel, and its developed logistics infrastructure simplifies the export of goods to other European countries. Registering a company in Poland allows you to participate in EU tenders, receive European grants and subsidies, and benefit from the protection of international investment agreements. Many entrepreneurs choose to open a company in Poland also as a first step toward obtaining a residence permit in EU countries.

Advantages of working with a professional consultant

Independent registration of an LLC in Poland by a foreigner is fraught with many challenges: language barriers, unfamiliarity with local legislation, and requirements for translation and notarization of documents. We work with entrepreneurs from various countries and know all the nuances of Polish bureaucracy. Our specialists have experience in incorporating companies for businesses across various industries: IT, logistics, trade, services, and manufacturing. By turning to us, you get not just a registration service, but full-fledged support at all stages – from choosing the legal form to post-registration accounting services.
