Corporate Secretarial Services in Poland
Polish Company Law (i.e. the Commercial Companies Code) obliges businesses registered on shore to deal with many corporate secretarial functions, this includes adequate maintenance of companies’ corporate documentation and appropriate reporting to numerous authorities.
Those matters stand in need of professional knowledge in many fields. The support of people specialising in dealing with these issues is essential for the success of your business in Poland. Using the service of getsix® as a corporate services provider, it lessens the burden and enables our customers to focus on their core businesses.
Adept and professional handling of corporate secretarial issues enormously reduces the risk of running a business in Poland, since the results of poor awareness, errors or negligence in this area might expose a company to damaging costs of i.e. numerous authorities controls and high penalties.
