Limited Liability Company LLC (spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością Sp. Z o. o.)

In a limited liability company (LLC) in Poland, the partners can be individuals or legal entities, including other companies. The partners of an LLC can have one or more partners. However, there is an exception that a single-member LLC cannot be established by another single-member LLC.

In terms of the company’s management structure, it is recommended to have at least 2 shareholders to avoid additional insurance contributions. If there is only one shareholder in the company’s management structure, additional insurance contributions may apply due to their status.

Liability for obligations – the company is liable for its obligations with all its assets, and the members of the management board can be jointly and severally liable, but only if enforcement against the company proves to be ineffective. Partners (shareholders) are not liable for the company’s obligations. Members of the management board can be exempt from liability if they prove that they timely filed for bankruptcy or that the board has initiated settlement proceedings, or that the bankruptcy petition was not filed and the settlement process was not initiated not due to their fault, i.e., despite the fact that no bankruptcy application was filed and no settlement procedure was initiated, the creditor did not suffer any damage.

The company’s management board and other corporate bodies represent and manage the company’s affairs. The management board can consist of one or several members. The management board is not required to be composed of shareholder-partners (the functions of the management board can be carried out by individuals who do not hold company shares). The appointment and dismissal of the management board are decided by the shareholders (unless otherwise specified in the company’s articles of association).

After establishing a company in Poland, there are several necessary steps to be taken. These actions may include:

  1. The Central Register of Ultimate Beneficial Owners (CRBR) is a registry of individuals who control specific economic entities. It is mandatory to report the information to the registry no later than 7 days from the company’s registration (from the day of establishment). Failure to comply with this requirement may result in a fine of up to 1 million PLN. One of the main tasks of CRBR is to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism.
  2. Payment of PCC (Tax on Civil Law Transactions) is made to the Tax Office (Urząd Skarbowy) in Poland. The PCC-3 form should be submitted within 14 days from the conclusion of the company agreement, and within the same period, the calculated tax amount (0.5% of the company’s share capital) should be paid independently.
  3. The additional request (NIP-8 form) is submitted to the Tax Office (Urząd Skarbowy) in Poland. The NIP-8 form must be submitted within 21 days, or if the company immediately employs employees, this period is shortened to 7 days, from the new company’s registration in the National Court Register (Narodowy Rejestr Sądowy). It is mandatory to submit the NIP-8 form in accordance with these timelines.
