Company
We set up limited liability companies, joint-stock companies, branches and representative offices, and take them all the way to their first invoice.
01 · Introduction
A Polish sp. z o.o. is the most common way for foreign companies to start operating in Poland. It gives shareholders limited liability, a Polish NIP and VAT number, an account with a Polish bank and credibility with customers.
Entering the company in the KRS is only the beginning. Before the company can issue its first invoice, you also need to report beneficial owners, register for VAT, open a bank account, configure KSeF and set up accounting. We run this entire process.
02 · Scope

03 · What it means
For you this means one contact person and one plan from idea to operating company. We choose the form (sp. z o.o., simple joint-stock company, S.A., branch or representative office), prepare the documents in your language and file them with the authorities in Polish.
If no board member has a Polish electronic signature, we arrange a PESEL and signature or register the company at a notary under a power of attorney.
Who it is for: Foreign companies and founders from outside Poland, including where no board member lives in Poland.
04 · Why it matters
Poorly drafted articles of association or late filings mean penalties and personal liability for board members.
Without VAT, a bank account and KSeF the company will not earn its first złoty. A well-planned start reduces this to a few business days.
Banks and counterparties check the KRS, the CRBR and the VAT white list. Complete entries open the door to credit and large clients.
05 · Legal basis
how we work
We learn about your goal, timeline and budget.
You receive the scope and price in writing before we start.
We handle the matter and keep you informed at every stage.
You receive the finished documents, register entries and access credentials.
Via S24 the court usually processes the application within one business day. With articles signed at a notary, allow up to a few days. VAT registration and a bank account usually take further days or weeks.
Not always. We do many steps remotely under a power of attorney. When a bank or authority requires your presence, we arrange a single visit.
