Yes — a foreign employer can legally employ a person residing in Poland, even if they do not have a company, branch or formal registration here. However, it is crucial to choose a cooperation model that complies with Polish law. The three most commonly used solutions are: B2B cooperation (where the employee runs their own business), the Employer of Record model (where a Polish EoR entity becomes the formal employer), and freelance cooperation, which is suitable for smaller projects.
Each model has its own tax and organisational implications, so it is worth analysing the scope of responsibilities and the nature of the cooperation before making a decision. If you need to discuss your situation or make sure which model will be the safest, you can consult getsix® — the team will help you sort out the basic issues and point out the most commonly used solutions.
