Regulated United Europe office in Poland

Regulated United Europe established its presence in Poland in 2019 through Company in Poland Sp. z o.o., a Polish limited liability company registered in the National Court Register (KRS).

The establishment of the Warsaw office marked an important milestone in RUE’s strategic expansion across Central Europe, strengthening its ability to provide corporate, legal and regulatory consulting services to international clients operating within the European Union. Establishing a full-fledged office in Warsaw provided a sustainable physical presence within the jurisdiction of the European Union, which has a large financial market, a developed banking infrastructure, and active regulation of the virtual asset sector.
The office is located at Twarda 18, 15th floor, 00-824 Warsaw, Poland – in the Spektrum Tower business centre, situated in one of the capital’s most prestigious business districts. This location offers easy access to financial institutions, law firms, corporate clients and government agencies.

Strategic importance of the Polish office

Poland has one of the largest economies in Central and Eastern Europe. It has a rapidly growing fintech sector and is actively implementing European regulations on digital finance. Having a physical office in Warsaw enables us to:

• ensure prompt interaction with the local government and financial supervisory authorities.
• support company licensing and registration procedures;
• coordinate legal processes within the framework of the MiCA regulation;
• provide clients with the opportunity for face-to-face consultations and strategic meetings.

Our presence in Poland strengthens our company’s regional coverage, forming a link between our Western European and Baltic offices.

Legal specialisation and profile

The Warsaw office has a legal department that specialises in obtaining financial licenses. The department provides support for projects in the field of virtual assets, cryptocurrencies, and the regulation of digital asset service providers (VASPs/crypto/MiCA).

The department’s main areas of activity include:

• legal analysis of crypto project business models;
• structuring activities in accordance with Polish and European legislation;
• providing legal assistance with crypto-asset service provider (CASP) authorisation procedures under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA), including the preparation of regulatory documentation, compliance assessments and applications in eligible EU jurisdictions.

  Since the expiry of the MiCA transitional period on 1 July 2026, registration in Poland’s former virtual currency activities register no longer provides authorisation to conduct crypto-asset services regulated under MiCA. Businesses intending to provide regulated crypto-asset services must obtain the relevant authorisation under the applicable European regulatory framework.

• developing internal AML/KYC policies;
• providing support for interactions with banks and payment institutions;
• providing advice on cross-border service provision within the EU.

Following the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA), the Warsaw office assists clients in adapting to European regulatory requirements concerning capital adequacy, corporate governance, internal controls, disclosure obligations and risk management.

As of October 2026, Poland has not brought into force the national legislation necessary to designate a competent authority for granting crypto-asset service provider (CASP) authorisations. Consequently, businesses seeking MiCA authorisation may consider other EU Member States where the relevant licensing procedures are operational.

Crypto-asset service providers authorised in another EU Member State may provide regulated services in Poland in accordance with MiCA’s cross-border notification requirements, subject to the scope of their authorisation and applicable regulatory obligations.

Infrastructural advantages of the location

The office is located on the 15th floor of a modern business centre which provides the following:

• a high level of confidentiality and security.
• modern meeting facilities for working with international clients.
• convenient access to the city’s transport hubs.
• a prestigious business address befitting the status of an international law firm.

Twarda Street is at the heart of Warsaw’s business district, where banks, auditing companies, investment funds and legal advisors are concentrated.

Role in the international structure of the company

The Polish office is part of the Regulated United Europe network, which covers key European Union jurisdictions. As well as serving local clients, its role is to support international projects focused on entering the European market. Due to its geographical location and the size of the Polish economy, the Warsaw office acts as a regional centre of expertise on the regulation of digital financial instruments and the licensing of virtual asset activities. Our presence in Warsaw demonstrates our company’s commitment to strengthening its position in the EU and providing clients with comprehensive legal support in one of Central Europe’s most promising jurisdictions.
