I receive many questions from our clients about doing business in Poland. Contrary to appearances, many foreign entrepreneurs are not aware that a company can be established in Poland electronically. In this aspect many doubts also concern costs as well as many particular formalities concerning not only the registration itself but also functioning of a company in Poland. How does it look like in practice? How to establish and run a company in Poland? Find out in this article!
It depends. In this respect, the law divides foreigners into two basic categories – some may undertake business activities in the same way as Polish citizens in Poland, while others will be subject to certain limitations.

In case of registration via S24 all payments will be done online. The portal automatically transfers the entrepreneur to the e-payment system after passing all the stages of company formation. What costs will you incur while registering your business in Poland?

In this aspect, I assist my clients in setting up a business in a form that suits their business best. I will take care of choosing the right legal form of business for your concept and present all the pros and cons before we proceed with the actual registration of the company.

I will prepare all the documents necessary for registration, including resolutions and National Court Register forms. Moreover, I will submit them on your behalf to the appropriate office or court of registration. Check it out!
