Company Registration in Poland
A registry filing, a tax number, a business account that a bank opens faster once registration is already underway — every step depends on the last one, and the instructions are all in Polish.
A CFO trying to handle registration alone, working from a checklist pulled off a government website, spends weeks on it instead of days — and still can't be sure the documents will pass on the first attempt.
Every formal error means a rejected filing, another fee, and more weeks of waiting before the company can legally operate at all.
Registration is handled by a trusted legal and accounting partner who does this professionally — you make the business decisions, they handle the formalities, and Deston ties it into the rest of your market entry.
We don't register companies ourselves — it's regulated work we hand to a trusted legal and accounting partner we've worked with for years. You talk to one person on the Deston side — legal questions go to the partner and come back to you translated into business decisions, not bureaucratic jargon.
What we don't do: we don't keep accounting books or represent you before the registry ourselves — that's always the partner, licensed for that work.
What you get
- Fewer corrections from the registryRegistration is handled by someone who does this professionally, so forms come back with fewer requests for corrections.
- One point of contactLegal and accounting questions don't come back to you as jargon — they come back as one clear decision to make.
- A smooth handover into operationsRegistration is tied directly into the rest of market entry, so the company isn't sitting idle before marketing or logistics kick in.
Registration is a regulated service, so its course is similar across industries — it mainly differs by legal form and whether a foreign shareholder is involved. Our partner registers companies for foreign clients regularly, not occasionally.
Scope and pricing
The service covers choosing the legal form that fits your entry model, preparing the full set of registration documents, filing with the National Court Register, obtaining a tax number, support opening a business account, and a first post-registration accounting consultation.
The order looks like this:
- Initial conversation — business model, shareholders' country of origin, planned scope.
- The partner prepares a legal-form recommendation and a document list.
- The full document set for review and approval before anything reaches the registry.
- Filing with the registry, tax number issuance, and support opening a business account.
Cost depends on legal form, number of shareholders and whether sworn translations are needed. You learn the price after the initial conversation. The cost of fixing a badly filed application — an extra fee, more weeks of waiting — usually outweighs the difference between cheap and experienced service.
Our guarantees
Full set for approval before filing. Nothing reaches the registry without your sign-off.
Corrections at no extra charge. If the court returns the filing with formal remarks, corrections stay within the price agreed at the start.
Communication in English. All communication with the partner runs through Deston, with a clear status at every stage.
Availability
The partner runs a limited number of registrations in parallel to keep to the statutory review deadline — the sooner you provide shareholder details, the sooner the filing moves.

What you lose by waiting

Frequently asked questions
Is Deston a law firm or an accounting office?
No. Registration and accounting are run by our trusted partner — Deston coordinates the whole process and stays your point of contact.
Which legal form should I choose — an LLC or a branch?
It depends on whether you plan independent commercial activity or only headquarters representation — the partner recommends a form based on your situation.
Do I have to travel to Poland to register a company?
Usually not — most formalities are handled through power of attorney and remotely submitted documents.
What happens after registration — does the same partner handle accounting?
Yes, the same partner takes over ongoing accounting and legal support.
How long does the whole registration take from the first conversation?
It depends on how complete the documents are and how busy the registry court is — a concrete timeline follows the initial conversation.
Can I register without visiting Poland if shareholders are in several countries?
Yes, though the power-of-attorney documentation is more extensive — the partner will specify the exact set after the conversation.
