Poland is an ex-soviet bloc country located in the Eastern Europe. Officially called the Republic of Poland, it stretches from Baltic Sea in northwest to Central Europe with Germany in west, the Czech Republic and Slovakia in the south Ukraine and Belarus in the east and Lithuania in the north. Strategically located in the East-Central Europe and with a longest Schengen border connecting this country to rest of Northern and Central Europe, Poland as an EU member is a key location through which EU trade routes pass.
Poland’s high-income economy is the sixth largest in the European Union and historically one of the fastest growing. After economic liberalization in the 1990s, the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) expanded at roughly 3% each year. It offers investors a diversified economy, a skilled workforce and fair corporate taxation.
The latest issue of The Economist, in fact, asserts that Poland has had its best 25 years in half a millennium, citing its relatively quick market – oriented recovery, decrease in public spending and insistence on keeping its native currency, the flexible zloty, while adapting to the euro. For these reasons and more, Poland was the only country in the EU – of which it’s been a member since 2004 – to dodge the recession that struck Europe in the late 2000s.
Mahandru Associates has been a beneficiary of this robust economy for a while by setting its Baltic representative office in Poland and will be in pole position to assist entrepreneurs of different origin in accessing the respective investment opportunities along with the associated legal and residency matters. We assist you in obtaining a Poland residency permit from Dubai.
