How to start acting alone? - Or how to start a sole proprietorship? Virtual office in Krakow will provide experience and assistance in registering a business.
Sole proprietorship ( JDG), in other words - self-employment. Running a business alone is a guarantee of independence. Which is both a disadvantage and an advantage. This type of company operates on the basis of an entry in the CEIDG (Central Registration and Information on Economic Activity). Registration is free, and all related formalities can be completed on the website of the misterstwo - biznes.gov.pl
As you can see, anyone can become an entrepreneur, but it should be said openly that not everyone can handle this role. Self-employment gives a lot of freedom, and this is associated with risk. A person who decides to act on their own must first and foremost demonstrate confidence in their actions, strategic skills and courage. In addition, they must have a wide range of knowledge about income taxation, financing the business, or creating its background... It is worth supporting yourself with the knowledge of experienced people and using the service of a virtual office, using a virtual address for the company and correspondence address.
From the experience of a virtual office in Kraków: what should you do to register a sole proprietorship?
1. Complete the CEIDG-1 form, this can be done via the ministry's website or:
- in person - at the city or commune office
- by registered mail (notarially certified)
The CEIDG-1 form is also an application for registration with ZUS. Within 7 days of starting business, the entrepreneur must specify the form of settlement using the ZUS ZUA form (social and health insurance) or ZUS ZZA (health contribution).
One natural person can have only one entry in CEIDG. Different types of business activities can be conducted under one entry.
When registering with CEIDG it is necessary to provide a name, this may be your first and last name.
At this point, you need to indicate the company's address. You can run your business in one or more permanent locations. It can be a stationary office, a virtual office (such as the Jocard Virtual Office in Krakow) or a coworking space. Importantly, to report a given address, you must have the right to it! The legal title of the property can be: ownership, lease (virtual office and virtual address for company registration), loan... If the company provides mobile services, e.g. in Krakow and does not have a permanent address, then this option will be considered in accordance with the truth. Here, it will be best to use the services such as: virtual office Krakow, company registration address Krakow, correspondence address Krakow with the possibility of using the service such as virtual secretary Krakow.
2. REGON number (necessary in contacts with the tax office and ZUS), NIP (Tax Identification Number).
3. Selection of the PKD code (Polish Classification of Activities). On the ministry's website, you can use the PKD code search engine (https://www.biznes.gov.pl/pl/tabal-pkd). This code defines what the business does, some of them are associated with specific forms of taxation, which is essential to familiarize yourself with.
4. Form of taxation. A self-employed person is a payer of personal income tax (PIT), which means that they have a choice of three forms of taxation:
- tax according to general rules,
- according to the tax scale (tax rate 17% and 32%)
- flat tax (19%) and lump sum tax on recorded revenues
What about VAT? If the sales of goods and services of the business do not exceed PLN 200,000 per year, there is no obligation to register for VAT.
