Your Business in the Heart of Switzerland
1. Local Management
Key strategic decisions must be made and formally recorded within the territory of the Swiss Confederation.
"Back-seat management" (from Poland) may result in the structure being deemed an artificial arrangement.
2. Physical Infrastructure
Swiss telephone number and a dedicated domain (.ch).
External communication positioning the entity as a genuine operational hub in Switzerland.
"Letterbox" addresses are automatically flagged by banking systems as high-risk.
3. Swiss Operational Bank Account
Banks require full transparency regarding the Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) structure, in compliance with LETA 2026 requirements.
4. Adequacy of Resources and Competencies
Resources (office, personnel, and equipment) must be commensurate with the scale of generated revenue.
The absence of operating expenses alongside multi-million turnover serves as primary evidence for tax authorities of a lack of economic substance.
5. Local Compliance and Documentation
Accounting must be maintained in accordance with the Swiss Code of Obligations (Obligationenrecht), with source documents physically stored at the company’s registered office.
2. Business Model Analysis
We define the strategic business objective and verify name uniqueness, selecting the optimal canton and legal structure to ensure alignment with future banking compliance requirements.
2. Documentation and Notary Public
We prepare the Articles of Association and Lex Koller declarations, followed by the official incorporation of the company through the signing of the public deed of incorporation in the presence of a notary public.
3. Capital Contribution
We are currently undergoing Source of Wealth (SoW) verification to open a technical deposit account and secure the capital required to obtain the bank certificate.
4. Entry in the Commercial Register
The company acquires full legal personality upon formal entry into the Commercial Register and publication in the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce.
5. Opening of the Bank Account
The process concludes with the conversion of the blocked technical account into an operational account, thereby releasing the capital and enabling the commencement of business transactions. This stage constitutes the most complex phase of the procedure.
How jurisdiction impacts the final result.
Hard Data:
- Up to 24% higher net profit
