Company Incorporation Poland

Introduction to Polish Company Formation

There are generally two reasons why business investors set up companies abroad: either to access new markets or to cut costs. Poland, which joined the EU in 2004, scores exceptionally well on both counts. The Polish market is the largest in Central Europe – larger, in fact, than the other nine new EU members put together – and labour costs are low. Foreign investment is pouring into the country, fuelling sustained economic growth of more than 5% a year.

The stifling bureaucracy of the Communist era is long gone and Poland now has one of the most liberal economic regimes in Central Europe.
