Costs of Setting Up a Limited Liability Company (Sp. z o.o.) in Poland in 2025 – Online and Traditional Registration
A limited liability company (sp. z o.o.) is one of the most popular forms of doing business in Poland. It offers legal security, management flexibility, and favorable tax solutions. No wonder it’s highly valued by both new and experienced entrepreneurs.
This article explains the costs of establishing an LLC in Poland in 2025, including both online and traditional registration methods.
Company Registration – Available Methods and Fees
In Poland, there are two main ways to register a limited liability company:
1. Online Registration via the S24 System
This is the simplest and cheapest option. The entire process takes place online using a standard company agreement template – no notary needed.
Costs of registering an LLC via S24 in 2025:
- Court registration fee (KRS): PLN 250
- Publication in the Court and Commercial Gazette (MSiG): PLN 100
- Stamp duty for power of attorney (if applicable): PLN 17
Advantages: quick process, low costs, no notary required
Disadvantages: limited customization of the company agreement
2. Traditional Registration via Notary
This method is recommended if you want to fully tailor the company agreement to the needs of the shareholders. It requires a visit to a notary and submitting physical documents to the registration court.
Costs of traditional LLC registration in 2025:
- Notarial fee: PLN 400 – 1000 (depending on share capital value)
- Court registration fee (KRS): PLN 500
- Publication in MSiG: PLN 100

Advantages: full flexibility in agreement terms
Disadvantages: higher costs, longer registration time
Minimum Share Capital – How Much Do You Need?
The minimum required share capital for an LLC in Poland is PLN 5,000. It can be contributed in the form of:
- Cash – mandatory for online registration
- Non-cash contributions (in-kind) – e.g., equipment, vehicle, know-how (allowed in traditional method)
Tip: It is advisable to contribute more than the minimum capital to ensure financial liquidity in the early stages of operation.
