Two ways to run payroll in Poland
Own-entity payroll
For long-term presence in Poland. Gracemark manages statutory filings, pay runs, and year-end reporting under your entity — with a named operator on Central Europe time.
EOR-run payroll
No entity in Poland? Employ and pay talent under Gracemark's local infrastructure via EOR — onboard in 1–2 weeks (eor), no local incorporation.
Compliance essentials in Poland
- Large, cost-effective engineering and shared-services talent pool
- B2B contractor arrangements are very common and tax-driven
- Leave entitlement depends on total career length (20 or 26 days)
- ZUS social contributions are the main employer cost
- Strong nearshore option for Western Europe
