Setting up a Company
|
 As a general rule, the freedom of trade and industry, guaranteed by the Swiss constitution, allows everyone, including foreign nationals, to set up and operate a business in Switzerland. There is much less "red tape" in Swiss business regulation than in the UK, Germany, France or Italy. An overseas individual or foreign company may choose the business form, which best meets their needs. To conduct a business personally on a permanent basis, a work and residence permit is however required. |
| Corporation |
| A joint stock company or corporation (German abbreviation AG) is the most widespread type of company in Switzerland. Foreign companies often choose this legal form for their Swiss subsidiary. 100,000 Swiss francs of registered capital, of which 50,000 francs must be deposited at the moment of incorporation, required. |
| Limited Liability Company |
| A limited liability company (German abbreviation GmbH) is a legal entity, in which one or more persons or companies come together in a new company. The company's liability is limited to the amount of the registered capital that must be at least 20,000 Swiss francs. Due to the revision of the corporation law, the process of establishing a limited liability company is less expensive and less complicated than establishing a corporation. The GmbH is increasingly preferred over the AG by small and medium-sized companies. |
| Registration Procedure |
| We provide personalized assistance in obtaining authorizations you need to incorporate your company in different cantons of Switzerland – Zurich, Basel, Luzern, Geneva, Vaud (Lausanne), Ticino (Lugano), etc., as well as in canton Zug with its unique tax advantages. The more clearly and concretely the business strategy is defined at the initial stage, the faster it is possible to move from planning to implementation of your project. Once we've checked that your desired company name is free, and the capital has been deposited, a company can be registered in one-two weeks. We are here to help you succeed in Switzerland. You can benefit from our experience in setting up foreign businesses and from having to deal with only one representative throughout the entire procedure. |
