Business in Poland

Setting up and running a business in Poland

Our approach

We are advisors who understand both the American way of doing business and the specifics of the European market – especially the Polish one, in which we have been operating for over 20 years. We work as an integrated team of experts, combining diverse competencies. We prioritize transparency, proactivity, and practical support in matters that are crucial to business. 

For whom?

Our offer is directed at American companies – from established corporations to innovative scale-ups – that are planning to expand into the Polish market or wish to further develop their existing operations in Poland. We support enterprises seeking comprehensive legal and tax advisory services that will enable them to operate safely, efficiently, and effectively within the realities of the Polish business environment. 

Benefits

We navigate Polish regulations with ease and have a deep understanding of the local business landscape. That’s why we effectively support entrepreneurs looking to establish or grow their operations in this market. 

Faster Market Entry Thanks to Local Know-How 

We are a team that knows the Polish business, regulatory, and cultural landscape well – which allows us to ensure a safe and swift entry into a new market. 

Integrated Advisory Services 

We operate as a one-stop shop, combining multiple competencies within a single team. This means the client does not need to coordinate the work of several law firms or advisors. 

Accelerated Business Growth 

Thanks to our long-standing cooperation with Polish companies and our own presence in the local business environment, we provide not only advisory services but also access to local contacts, partners, and institutions. This accelerates business development and facilitates the establishment of lasting relationships with the surrounding ecosystem. 

Services

We help clients navigate the local regulatory, tax, and business environment effectively, designing solutions tailored to their strategy and pace of operations. Our team primarily provides assistance in the following areas: 

State aid 

We verify and select optimal forms of public support and provide strategic advisory services at the investment planning stage. 

Intellectual property

Compliance 

We provide assistance in ensuring business compliance with applicable regulations. 

Global mobility and immigration law 

We assist with matters such as legalizing the stay and employment of foreign nationals (both from EU countries and third countries), and shaping secondment policies within capital groups. We offer full legal and tax support for cross-border service provision and employment. 

Dispute resolution

We provide full support in contentious proceedings – from representation before Polish courts, through assistance in negotiations and mediations, to enforcement and pre-litigation dispute resolution. 

Investments

We assist in developing optimal investment structures, taking into account legal and tax aspects. 

Taxes

We provide tax advisory services in the areas of CIT, PIT, and VAT. We represent clients before tax authorities and support them in compliance and transfer pricing matters. We also assist in fulfilling reporting obligations. 

M&A and corporate law 

We support the acquisition of Polish companies/businesses and the structuring of domestic and international transactions (from both legal and tax perspectives). We develop comprehensive action strategies and represent clients during negotiations. We also provide full corporate services for companies. 

Accounting and payroll

We offer full HR and accounting services – in cooperation with OW Group company, OWAP. We relieve the client of responsibilities such as maintaining complete HR documentation, accounting books, and payroll processing. 

HR and labor law 

We assist in shaping optimal employment structures and preparing required labor law documents (including regulations, policies, and contracts). We provide support for HR departments – either on an ongoing basis or for a specified period.
