    How do I search the company register in Poland?

    Start with KRS / CEIDG (https://ekrs.ms.gov.pl) for Poland company records. Use the supported legal-name or identifier search and inspect available fields, such as KRS number, NIP (tax ID), REGON (statistical number). Official searches, documents and APIs have separate access rules; LemReveal's free lookup does not remove those conditions.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Know which register holds the record

      In Poland, company records sit on KRS / CEIDG. Trade directories and aggregator sites are copies — the register is the source of truth.

    2. 2

      Search by name or registration number

      Use the exact identifier with its issuing register or jurisdiction. Name searches can return several candidates; a number is not a guarantee that the source is available or covers the record.

    3. 3

      Read the register entry, not the marketing page

      The register entry shows KRS number, NIP (tax ID), REGON (statistical number). That is what a bank, auditor or counterparty will check.

    4. 4

      Keep a dated copy

      Register entries change. Save the record with the date you retrieved it, or set up monitoring so you are told when the entry changes.

    Poland: choosing and checking the right record

    Choose the correct source
    Choose KRS for entities within the National Court Register and CEIDG for sole-trader registration. Use the official government search routes rather than assuming every Polish business must have a KRS record.
    Confirm the entity
    Keep KRS, NIP and REGON numbers distinct. Compare the full legal name and available address with the contracting entity. Read representation rules separately from the list of management-board members.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the Poland company register free to search?

    Check KRS / CEIDG's current terms for basic searches, profiles, documents and APIs. Not all are necessarily free or available without an account.

    Which register is the official one in Poland?

    Start with KRS / CEIDG, at https://ekrs.ms.gov.pl. Coverage can depend on entity type or jurisdiction; other official sources may answer different questions.

    What does a Poland register entry show?

    KRS number, NIP (tax ID), REGON (statistical number). Availability of each field depends on what KRS / CEIDG publishes.

    Do register entries stay accurate?

    Only until the company files its next change. Directors, addresses and status can change without notice, which is why a dated copy — or automatic monitoring of the entry — matters for anything contractual.

    What is a sp. z o.o.?

    Sp. z o.o. (Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością) is Poland's limited liability company, equivalent to a GmbH or Ltd. Minimum share capital is PLN 5,000 (about €1,100). It's the most popular company form for small and medium businesses.
