Poland has been aggressively working on its infrastructure and has the largest consumer market in the newly joined EU countries. It has had a stable economy with current GDP growth rate around 3.5%. The Polish parliament passed laws in 2002, which aided in investment in SEZs and access to the European Union structural funds. The government has taken several measures to ease the process of setting up a business and incentivized companies to invest in Poland. In July 2011, the Act Limiting Administrative Barriers for Citizens and Businesses went into effect, introducing a series of measures designed to diminish the burden of Poland's state bureaucracy. Since 2012, a company can be registered as a limited liability company within 24 hours. SEZs benefit from income tax and real estate tax exemption.
