Optima Group · Berlin and Kołobrzeg

German operations for Polish and international firms.

We take care of the commercial infrastructure in Germany: company formation, bookkeeping, payroll, posting, applications, office services, property administration and digital document workflows. One contact coordinates authorities, partners and deadlines.

Many clients do not have a single isolated problem, but need reliable administration in the background: correspondence from German authorities, management abroad, construction sites, payroll filings, bookkeeping, bank KYC, deadlines and documents. Depending on the mandate, Optima handles individual areas or the entire ongoing commercial administration.

Construction

Construction Companies

Construction firms posting workers to Germany or carrying out contracts on German building sites face a thicket of reporting obligations and industry-specific regulations.

  • A1 certificate & posted worker registration
  • SOKA-BAU & BG BAU registration
  • Review of German tax liability
  • Tax exemption certificate § 48b EStG
  • Payroll for posted workers
Real Estate

Real Estate Companies

Investors acquiring German residential and commercial property need a reliable local structure — from GmbH incorporation to ongoing property management accounting.

  • GmbH incorporation & commercial register filing
  • Bookkeeping for real estate holding companies
  • Government correspondence & contract coordination
  • Coordination with tax advisors & notaries
Trade & E-Commerce

Trading Companies

  • VAT registration in Germany
  • Business address & authorised recipient for service
  • Ongoing financial bookkeeping
  • Customs & import documentation
  • ERP & interface integration with German tax compliance
Investment & M&A

  • Escrow accounts & payment processing
  • Investment reporting & consolidation
  • Company acquisitions & M&A support
  • Company formation & structuring

Formation & Structure

Foreign Founders

Entrepreneurs from Poland and other countries who need a German GmbH, sole proprietorship, partnership or branch office must coordinate notary, bank, commercial register, trade office and tax office in the correct order.

  • GmbH, sole proprietorship, partnership & branch office
  • Notary, powers of attorney & translations
  • Transparency register, tax number & VAT ID
  • Virtual business address in Berlin
Software & Integration

Clients with Existing Software

Many clients bring their own systems from abroad: ERP, invoicing, bookkeeping, inventory or specialist software. Our software division connects these programs with Optibill and sets up digital tools such as chatbots and automations.

  • Optibill as client software
  • Connection of foreign systems
  • Setup of custom chatbots
  • Interfaces, data logic & automations

Optima is not a single service and does not work with fixed packages. We cover the administration your mandate actually needs: setting up the company, keeping bookkeeping clean, tracking deadlines, turning authority logic into clear tasks and coordinating licensed tax advisors, lawyers or notaries.

Many enquiries start with one topic. In practice, they quickly become ongoing administration: collecting documents, tracking deadlines, answering authorities, preparing bookkeeping and coordinating partners. These journeys show typical industry cases.

Polish construction companies

Accepting a project in Germany

Before work starts, posting, SOKA-BAU, customs notifications, A1, payroll documents, possible German tax liability and often the tax exemption certificate must be prepared. Monthly reports and authority correspondence continue afterwards.

Optima is building Optibill as its own client software. It acts as a portal, workspace and integration point for invoices, receipts, payment status, queries, documents and handovers to bookkeeping or tax advisors.

The software division does not stop with Optibill. We set up practical interfaces, connect existing client software from abroad with our processes and implement custom chatbots or automations where they reduce recurring administration work.

Optibill is an exclusive service for clients of the Optima Group. There is no data lock-in: if your mandate ends, your data can be exported and taken with you in an orderly way.

The Optima Group supports companies that want to operate in Germany without building their own German administration department.

What began as an advisory office for Polish construction entrepreneurs has grown over two decades into a group serving clients from Poland and other international markets. Our Berlin office takes care of the commercial infrastructure: bookkeeping, payroll, office services, authority communication, application procedures and administrative workflows.

Together with Optima Prime Consulting in Kołobrzeg and a network of tax advisors, lawyers and notaries, we connect German administrative practice with Polish and international client reality. Every client gets a dedicated contact person who tracks processes, monitors deadlines and coordinates partners.

Describe your enquiry — we will respond within one business day. The initial consultation is free of charge — further advisory work is quoted individually.
