How to open a
company in Poland.

Establishing a company in Poland involves several key steps — from choosing your business structure to official registration. Here’s the simplified incorporation process.

01

Choose the
business structure

Decide on the legal form — Sp. z o.o (most common), joint stock company, partnership, or sole proprietorship. Sp. z o.o is favored for its limited liability and ease of management.

02

Pick a
company name

Select a unique and regulation-compliant name. Our experts at OnDemand International help you check name availability and ensure registration compliance.

03

Draft articles of
association

Prepare the articles of association and have them notarized. Single shareholders must also execute an incorporation deed before a Polish notary.

04

Open a corporate
bank account

Set up a business bank account and deposit the minimum share capital — PLN 5,000 for Sp. z o.o and PLN 100,000 for joint stock companies.

05

Register the
company

Submit the registration application to the National Court Register (KRS) with supporting documents. We assist you throughout the process to ensure accurate filing.

04 / Documents
