New regulations for companies. Business registration only online

From today, people planning to start their own business must prepare for the new rules. An application to register a company in the Central Registration and Information on Economic Activity (CEIDG) can only be submitted online. The Ministry of Development and Technology emphasizes that this is the beginning of greater changes in the digitization of services for entrepreneurs.

"From November 1, an application to start a business at CEIDG can only be submitted online. An exception applies to minors setting up a business. This is the first stage of broader changes aimed at simplifying formalities and making running a business easier," said the Ministry of Development and Technology.

Where to apply?

You can set up a new company via the Biznes.gov.pl website, the mObywatel application, as well as selected banks and platforms supporting entrepreneurs. The Ministry reminds that since April 2026, the Company service has been available in the mObywatel application, which enables not only the registration of business activity, but also its suspension, resumption and checking company data.

"Since April 2026, the Company service has been available in the mObywatel application. It enables not only the registration of a business activity, but also its suspension and resumption. Through the application, it is also possible to check the company's data and download a certificate from CEIDG," the ministry said in a statement.

By connecting the CEIDG database with other public registers, some information will be updated automatically, which will additionally relieve entrepreneurs from unnecessary formalities.

The next stage in 2028

However, this is not the end of the changes. The second stage of digitization is scheduled for 2028. "The next stage of digitization of companies will cover all other applications submitted to CEIDG. From November 1, 2028, only online will it be possible not only to make changes to the entry, but also to suspend, resume and terminate business activity," the announcement said.
