Poland is considered a “buffer zone” between Western Europe and the CIS, providing the advantages of two large markets at the same time. If you want to get European privileges and at the same time do not want to move to remote regions of the EU, then registering a company in Poland is a great option.

- direct registration of a company in Poland;

Features of registering a business in Poland
Opening a company in Poland is one of the fastest in the world. We are ready to prepare all the necessary documentation in 5 working days. The vast majority of documentation can be issued electronically.
In the country it is allowed to register an enterprise not only for one person. The number of founders can be up to 9.
Another characteristic feature is the ability to expand business activities over time both to the entire Schengen area and beyond. Poland, unlike many other European countries, regularly supports local businesses in their endeavors.
The most common legal form for registering a company in Poland is Sp. Zo.o (similar to the Ukrainian LLC / TOV). This version of the enterprise can be created even without significant investments – the minimum authorized capital is set at only 5 thousand Polish zlotys (about 1200 euros).
To open a company in Poland, the director needs to visit the country, sign the documentation with a notary and issue a current account for the company in a bank, or do it all by proxy. The Lawrange team will allow you to create your own account with BNP Paribas or PKO Bank, two major Polish lending institutions.
What taxes do businesses pay in Poland?
The Republic of Poland is a member of the EU and uses standard tax liability rates that can be used when starting a business in Poland:
- on profit – 9%. Subsequently, the rate will be increased to 19%;
- contribution to the pension fund – 9.76%;
- VAT (VAT) – 23%. For some activities, a reduced rate of up to 8% applies. There is a VAT refund.
An effective tax burden in the country is extremely beneficial for young enterprises that have not yet had time to gain a foothold in the market. That is why registering a business in Poland is highly recommended for start-ups in the first place.
