A Few Questions and Answers

Below we have compiled a selection of questions we are frequently asked.

The fee for forming a company in the United Kingdom is PLN 3,500 net. This is a one-off payment; the monthly accounting subscription for the company is PLN 500 net. The scope of services included in the PLN 500 subscription is set out in the agreement. Our client services team can provide further details by telephone on 530447230.

You may remain employed by a company in Poland whilst simultaneously forming a business in the form of an LTD company in England and begin invoicing that client for services on a B2B basis.

Please bear in mind that an absence abroad lasting more than 6 months must be registered no later than the day on which you plan to leave Poland. This can be done online or at your local municipal office. Online registration requires a trusted profile (profil zaufany), a qualified electronic signature certificate, or a personal signature certificate.

Entry to the United Kingdom is currently possible only on the basis of a valid passport. Persons holding settled status or pre-settled status, obtained on the basis of a national identity card, will be able to cross the UK border using their identity card only until the end of 2025.

Further information on settled and pre-settled status is available on our YouTube channel.

Yes, this will be necessary. A branch of an LTD company must be opened when the nature of the services provided requires a physical presence at the place of delivery. Therefore, if a person wishes to operate in Poland under the banner of a British LTD company — for example, a retail shop, a beauty salon, a hairdresser’s, etc. — they will need to open a branch. A further case concerns the dispatch of products: proper business conduct will require a warehouse in Poland. A branch must also be opened when the business requires employees to be engaged at the place of service delivery (i.e. in Poland).

This obligation arises once the turnover threshold of £85,000 per year is exceeded. If you anticipate reaching that level of income within the next 30 days, you should also notify your accountant so that they can arrange registration.

This obligation does not apply to every type of business. The legislation provides for a range of VAT exemptions for companies providing, amongst other things, hospital and medical services. If all the products you sell are VAT-exempt, registration is not required.

From 2024, every British company selling its products or services to EU countries is required to register for VAT. E-commerce businesses are already required to comply with this obligation (VAT OSS and VAT IOSS).

Yes, consultations are chargeable. An initial conversation is free of charge. If you become our clients, you may ask questions about the operation of LTD companies at no additional charge.


Yes, provided you have your own residential address in the UK and a work visa, or settled status. National Insurance numbers are generally issued to persons who have the right to work and reside in the UK. For a work visa, a Certificate of Sponsorship from a UK employer is required.


The United Kingdom, or UK for short, is the largest island nation in the area. It comprises England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the surrounding British Isles. In Polish, the terms Wielka Brytania (Great Britain) and Anglia (England) are often used interchangeably.
