Commonly used business forms in Poland
- Joint-Stock Company (S.A.)
Ideal for businesses planning to attract investors or enter the stock market. It requires a minimum share capital of PLN 100,000 (~EUR 20,000) and is well-suited for larger operations.
- Limited Liability Company
The Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością (Sp. z o.o.), Poland’s LLC, is the second most popular business form after JDG (similar to sole proprietorship) and is frequently chosen for company setup. In Sp. z o.o., shareholders’ financial liability is limited to their contributions to the share capital, making it a preferred choice among entrepreneurs registering companies in Poland.
Who can open a business in Poland?
Any foreign national legally residing in Poland can establish a company. The Sp. z o.o. (or sp z o) is a popular legal form, operating as an independent legal entity authorized to conduct business activities, including international trade.
- Sp. z o.o. can have one or multiple founders, though it is recommended that at least two founders be present to reduce operational costs.
- Social security contributions of approximately EUR 300 per month are required if the registration involves a sole founder.
- A director who is also the founder is not obligated to receive an official salary, making this company registration a cost-effective option for entrepreneurs in Poland.
