01 · Introduction

A shelf company is a Polish sp. z o.o. that we set up in advance and that has not conducted any business. You buy its shares at a notary, change the management board and address, and can start operating within a few days.

We only sell companies that we have set up ourselves, VAT-registered and with a statement of no liabilities.

02 · Scope

What the service includes

  • Share sale agreement at a notary
  • Change of management board and address
  • KRS and CRBR update
  • Statement of no liabilities

03 · What it means

What it means for you

For you this means starting without waiting for VAT registration and without the risk of taking over someone else’s history. The company already has a NIP, REGON, a KRS entry and VAT registration.

After the purchase we update the KRS and the CRBR so that the company is registered in your name straight away.

Who it is for: Companies that need to start operating in Poland faster than standard registration allows.

04 · Why it matters

Why it matters

01

Speed

Clean history

A company with no activity has no hidden debts, disputes or tax arrears.

Credibility

Some counterparties and banks view a company that has existed for longer more favourably.
