Buying / selling bitcoin in Poland

[tezcatcatl]

Hello everyone,
I live in Netherlands and actively buy and sell bitcoins.
I would like to start trading in the Polish market therefore I am planning to visit Poland and open a bank account and get a Polish SIM card.
Therefore I booked an airbnb and visiting there this Sunday, and doing the banking etc. on Monday.

I found this site bitbay.net and internetowykantor.pl
And I am planning to open a bank account in Millennium bank.

I will regularly need to send and receive SEPA transfers to Netherlands, and maybe sometimes from Turkey.
To exchange from PLN to EUR, I will use the internetowykantor.
And I would like to do everything legally, register, verify my ID etc. if necessary.

I wanted to ask your suggestions with some things:

- Is there anything specific that I should be careful?
- Is millennium bank OK?
- Should I expect any problems with anything?
- Would you suggest any other local site to buy / sell BTC in Poland over my choice?
- Would you suggest any other local site to exchange currencies over my choice?
- Would you suggest any other bank over my choice?

About the road trip, from my city, it's not so far, just 8 hours of drive and I have winter tyres.
Is there so much snow? Should I take snow chains with me or would winter tyres be enough?

Thanks alot for your help, and sorry for writing in English.
I do not speak Polish so I hope some of you can give me some nice tips.

Have a great weekend!

Hello.  Weather report:
We have a thaw currently, a lot of snow is melting, you wont need chains.
Due to high humidity level, I would expect mists so careful there.
Roads are fine, frost is currently in the drawback so no fear of glaze, however it is slippery.
Winter tires in good condition highly recommended!
Have a great time in Poland.

As to your other questions, I think there is nothing in particular that you should be worrying about.

special tip: If you are going in Kraków, Lodz, Warsaw area (big cities) buy yourself anti smog mask.
It may be a problem, if you are not used to coal smoke.

Thank you very much for the information.
I have almost new winter tyres so I hope to be fine.

Cheers!

Bitbay and or millenium may report you to the local IRS with tour transaction history so what you have to think about is that by making any profit using bitbay and your polish back account you need to file a tax report to IRS

The tax office is called US or Urząd Skarbowy here. Other than that I think it's pretty obvious that if you go through KYC or withdraw the proceeds from selling bitcoins to a bank account, taxes have to be paid if you don't want this sword to be hanging above your head for the next ~5-6 years...
