Subsidiary Set Up in Switzerland

Challenge: Lack of Local Knowledge

Opening a subsidiary in Switzerland involves navigating complex regulations and making legal and structural choices that impact your tax exposure and the relationship with your parent company.

Solution

We work hand-in-hand with trusted Swiss legal and accounting firms used to dealing with international clients. Together, we determine the most suitable structure for your business and ensure full compliance with Swiss rules — with minimal effort on your end.

Challenge: Time and Administrative Burden

Trying to set up a Swiss company from abroad means dealing with paperwork, unfamiliar suppliers, and local institutions — all of which slow you down.

Solution

We coordinate everything on your behalf: company registration, office sourcing, accounting systems, payroll, insurance, and compliance. Your time is spent on growing your business, not chasing documents.

Challenge: Finding Reliable Local Providers

Finding banks, lawyers, or insurance brokers you can trust — especially when they’re not used to working with international clients — is time-consuming and risky.

Solution

We act as your single point of contact in Switzerland. We coordinate the entire setup process with a network of verified partners. From document signing to office visits, we plan your stay and streamline the whole journey.
