The most popular form of providing business activity in Poland is a limited liability company (pl. “spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością – spółka z.o.o., LLC). This is one of the most universal and versatile legal forms of the business in Poland.
Registering your business will require several important decisions which will determine, among other things, what taxes you will pay and what your obligations as an entrepreneur will be.
A company can be established by partners or a single natural person. A partner should fall into one of the following groups:
- natural person with full capacity for legal acts;
- person with limited capacity for legal acts – authorized by their legal representative;
- legal person.
A limited liability company cannot be formed solely by another single-member limited liability company.
To establish a company you will need to define the type of business activity of your company. The LLC offers you wide opportunities. The basic condition is that your object fully complies with the Polish law. Some types of activities like personal and property protection services, transport, broadcasting or medical activities may require additional permits or licenses.
