However, if you are planning to engage in serious business operations in the EU and trade with large companies, we recommend that your Polish-based company should have a larger charter capital. Please apply for a personal consultation on this matter.
The charter capital is divided into shares with the nominal price of one share being 50 zloty (around 12 euros). So if the company charter capital is 5,000 zloty, the minimum share of 50 zloty amounts to 1% of the capital. The shares can be distributed between the company owners in any way you like. For example, the company can have two founders with one of them holding 99% of the ownership shares and the other one holding only 1%. The ownership shares can be distributed between the company owners in any other proportions. Depending on your business objectives, we can help you solve the issue of company ownership shares distribution.
