Law / Where can I check in Poland my company formation status and tax number NIP and REGON? [95]

So basically what you want to know is whether or not the person you'rebactually dealing with is part of the company in question.

Worth mentioning that they're listed in all the various directories - Panorama firm etc. Worth noting that companies do not supply their own listings for this.

There's plenty on the Internet to suggest they're a real company.

Basically they like the idea of the rule of law when it supports their particular activities and despise it when it doesn't.

Works of fiction generally have some merit. That is just a tissue of lies designed to smear respected individuals.

His party practically obsess on that issue.


That would very much depend on the nature of what was publicised...


Forming political parties and demanding privileges is the Polish national sport.

Exactly.

He was famously outed on TV by President Wałęsa and I fully expect that if his party try any funny business this time it will all come out in the wash. Nothing dreadfully scandalous, just seedy stuff. In Poland they aren't really used to people from that community fighting back, however that does now seem to be happening.

That's especially true for people from out in the sticks where there's not much privacy anyway.


I knew of him as a person before I knew of him as a politician (before he even stood for any office) and the less said about that here the better...

It's an established pattern of behaviour for them.

I must say, it was clear from the start that they'd start to fall apart - just a surprise how quickly.

News / Throwing away the constitution in Poland? [626]


This is key to it. The English Common Law system (inherited by a few other countries) isn't perfect however the French system (inherited by Poland, Germany, Italy etc) gives much more room for infighting.

We need to stop mining and using it right now. When your scientific methods are developed, maybe we 'could' start mining again.

Law / Uber in Poland - illegal [28]

That's about fines for drivers. If you check the Uber website (as a regular and happy user I recommend it to any expat or local) you will see details about their insurance.

Not that a passenger need be interested.

They really are good. If you were genuine, and not a taxi operator pretending not to be and trying (badly) to do a free advert, I'd recommend them to you too.

I would seriously avoid this taxi firm you're trying to push - too many posts from yourself pretending not to be adverts, whereas in fact one radio taxi is much the same as any other.

One reason I prefer uber.com/cities/gdansk

Also worth mentioning that (an alternative to taxis) the new fast rail link from Gdansk Airport to Gdansk centre (with good connections to Sopot and Gdynia) is now open.

Law / Uber in Poland - illegal [28]

No. It is not illegal. It is operating very successfully in most major cities in Poland and has been for quite some time now. It is growing in popularity. Much better than old-fashioned taxis. I'm a very heavy taxi user and I switched to Uber a couple of months ago as a trial and won't switch back to old-style taxis.

Plus (and this is a big plus) they follow,a route determined in advance so no "going the scenic route" something very common in Poland if the taxi driver thinks you're a stranger in town.

If you have any questions about their insurance (which you don't, since you're a taxi operator and not a bona fide passenger) I refer you to their website: uber.com/cities/gdansk

Hating an entire nation because of the past is sheer insanity.

Yes. I know a few people who've said exactly the same thing about Poland. One minute someone is contacting you all the time and it can seem a bit intense, the next minute they vanish.

I thinks that's actually a very good assessment.

Unfortunately, we've got at least a couple of years of that to come.

Unfortunately the 8 years of stability and decency didn't change a system that the PiS clowns were perfectly happy to take advantage of in the past and are doubtless quivering with anticipation to abuse against their perceived enemies now.
