New classifications of business activity have been
introduced for all businesses in Poland.
All businesses must ensure that its own stated business

2009. The management board or representative shareholders of
any commercial company failing to do so will be fined by the
register court and ordered to amend the scope of activity in
its articles of association within 7 days.
Businesses registered in the Companies Register will be
required to amend the scope of activity in their articles of
association and report this amendment to the National Court
Register.
Recording the amendment is subject to a fee of PLN 650 plus
the cost of a notarial deed amounting to c. PLN 500 for
professional partnerships, limited partnerships and limited
joint-stock partnerships, PLN 750 for limited liability
companies and PLN 1,200 for joint stock companies.
