Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is included in the CHF 3,900 GmbH price?
The all-inclusive GmbH formation package at CHF 3,900 covers: drafting and reviewing articles of incorporation (bilingual German/English), notary appointment and fees, commercial register submission and registration fees, domicile address for 12 months in your chosen canton, VAT registration assistance, and English-language company secretary service for 12 months. It does not include nominee director fees (CHF 3,600/year), bank account introduction (CHF 500), or accounting/bookkeeping services.
Are there any costs I need to pay to the Swiss government separately?
The statutory minimum capital for a GmbH is CHF 20,000, at least half of which (CHF 10,000) must be deposited at formation into a blocked bank account. This capital becomes yours once the company is registered — it is not a fee, it is your company’s equity. Our CHF 3,900 fee is separate from and in addition to this statutory requirement.
Why is the AG formation more expensive at CHF 5,900?
AG (Aktiengesellschaft) formations are more complex and require additional documentation: share capital certificates, a statutory auditor appointment, and more detailed articles of association. The minimum capital is also CHF 100,000 (CHF 50,000 paid in at formation). The additional cost reflects the greater legal complexity and documentation requirements.
Can I get an itemised breakdown of your fees before committing?
Absolutely — we provide a full itemised quote before any engagement begins. The service agreement specifies every cost. This transparency is a core part of our service.
What happens if the formation costs more than quoted?
Your fixed price is guaranteed in your signed service agreement. We absorb any cost overruns on our side. The only situations where additional costs might arise are if you request services outside the original scope, or if there are unusual complications requiring additional work — in which case we discuss and agree any additional fees with you in advance.
