Opening a spulka in Poland is a matter that requires preparation both in the informational and documentary sense. Each country has its own peculiarities of registering businesses, companies, and societies. And in order to implement your plans, doing it as quickly, accurately and productively as possible, it is worth familiarizing yourself with detailed information on how to open a spool in Poland.

Advantages of registering a business in Poland

If you are thinking about registering your company in Poland, you should weigh the pros and cons. The team of experts of our company, thanks to many years of experience, can confidently highlight the following advantages of opening an LLC in Poland:
  • High security and good legal basis. In this country, everything related to the development and operation of business takes place officially, "in white". Compliance with laws, rights and freedoms of entrepreneurship allows you to solve a complex issue at the state level at any time.
  • Possibility of obtaining a residence permit. To take advantage of such an offer, when registering an LLC in Poland, you must provide the municipality with an extract from the tax office. The company's income must be equal to at least 12 salaries in the voivodeship where the company is located. You can count on a residence permit for a period of 1 to 3 years (this depends on the efficiency and profitability of the company).
  • Inexpensive business maintenance. If we compare the opening of the spulka in Poland and its subsequent maintenance with the conditions in other EU countries, the Polish authorities have created relatively favorable conditions for entrepreneurs. CIT-8 and PIT are the main types of taxation that a business owner faces.
  • However, in order to open a spulka in Poland and run your own business in this country, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the disadvantages. In particular, you will need special patience to overcome some bureaucratic difficulties, for example, you will have to learn how to keep a certain form of reporting.
That is why we offer services for opening a spulka in Poland. The company's experts are well acquainted with the registration procedure, the specifics of communication with government agencies, as well as the legislative framework of Poland.

The most common types of legal entities that are most often registered by foreigners

There are several options for legal entities that are registered by foreign citizens:
  • Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością (Sp. z o.o.) is a company that corresponds to a Belarusian LLC and a Ukrainian TOV. In order to establish Sp. Z o.o. needs PLN 5,000.
  • JDG (jednoosobowa działalność gospodarcza) is an individual entrepreneurship in which the business owner conducts activities on his own behalf and under his own responsibility. Authorized capital is not required.
  • Spółka akcyjna (S.A.) is a joint-stock company, as it is called in Belarus and Ukraine. The authorized capital of such a company must correspond to PLN 100,000.
  • Przedstawicielstwo firmy zagranicznej is a representative office of a foreign company. If you are planning to register an LLC in Poland in order to carry out small activities, you should pay attention to the design of a virtual office.
We have listed the most common options that are suitable for foreign citizens. Which one should you choose? It all depends on the type of your activity, authorized capital and plans for business development.

List of persons who can open a company in Poland

Any foreigner with a foreign passport can open an LLC in Poland. By the way, in order to carry out your plans, it is not necessary to be on the territory of the state - a remote registration form is available.

Registration of a business with a residence permit or Card of the Pole

Opening a company in Poland with a Pole's Card or a residence permit provides advanced opportunities. For example, with a KP, you can register an LLC in Poland, having the same rights as citizens of the country. In this case, the procedure for registering a business is somewhat different from the one offered to foreigners.

If you have a residence permit, this is an opportunity to legally engage in entrepreneurship. Thus, the possibility of choosing the type of organization in comparison with non-residents of the country is expanded. For example, without the Residence Card, you cannot become an individual entrepreneur and open a spool in Poland, but you have access to the organization Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością, which corresponds to the Ukrainian LLC and the Belarusian LLC.

Stages of registering a company in Poland

The procedure for creating a business has several main stages:

  • Collection and execution of documentation – it is necessary to prepare a package of documents, translate them into Polish and notarize them;
  • Submission to the National Court Register – you need to write an application and pay the fee. As a result, the company receives a registration number, and the founders receive a TIN;
  • Publication in the Judicial and Economic Bulletin is a necessary stage that all companies go through before opening a limited liability company in Poland;
  • Registration with the tax and social insurance department is the final part of the procedure, completing the registration cycle.

The founder or members of the company do not need to open a pool in Poland on their own. On the basis of a power of attorney, Finoditax specialists can perform a number of legal actions related to the organization of the company.

Required documents to open your own company

To open an LLC in Poland, you should prepare the following list of documents:

  • Foreign, national passport of the founder and director of the company;
  • A document confirming the registration address of the founder, director, shareholder;
