Setting up a company in Poland – what does the service involve?

Establishing a company is a service addressed to entities that do not have sufficient resources (time or knowledge) to set up a company on their own.

For registration of a limited liability company, joint-stock company, limited partnership or limited joint-stock partnership it is necessary to prepare documentation and fulfil a number of formal obligations.
