Setting up a Sàrl in Switzerland

Set up a Sàrl in Switzerland on solid foundations.

A limited liability company lets you develop your activities, hire staff and obtain financing. In Switzerland, the Sàrl is the structure of choice: it remains cheaper than a public limited company and has several advantages over a sole proprietorship.

Setting up a Sàrl in Switzerland
  • Limited liability

    The partners are liable for debts up to their contributions, and no further.

  • All-inclusive price

    No additional service is charged during the procedure.

  • Our own advisers

    We have no intermediaries and work with our own advisers.

Limited liability of the partners

Unlike in a sole proprietorship, the partners of a Sàrl are liable only up to the amount of their respective contributions. In the event of bankruptcy, they are not personally liable for the company's debts.

If the financial situation becomes difficult, the entrepreneur has the flexibility to bounce back without their personal finances being directly affected.

Company creation

Credibility with stakeholders

Setting up a Sàrl can convey an image of professionalism and credibility to business partners, clients and suppliers.

Building up share capital and running a company under its own name are attractive and inspire trust.

Easier handover of the business

When selling, a Sàrl is easier to hand over than a sole proprietorship, because the company's shares can be transferred to a third party.

Handing over a sole proprietorship requires a sales contract covering all its assets and liabilities, and can involve very high costs to assess the situation before and after the sale.

A protected trade name

Setting up a Sàrl lets you register the company's trade name with the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, which protects against unauthorised use of the name, the logo or other material.

Consider keeping full exclusivity over your brand image, in Switzerland, in Europe or worldwide. Our experts can tell you more about this option.

Better operational organisation

A Sàrl is managed by one or more partners, who may be individuals or legal entities. This structure makes the company easier to manage and organise, and better separates business decisions from personal ones.

It also lets you diversify the key profiles within the company and aim for larger markets.

What incorporation really costs

Setting up a Sàrl costs more than setting up a sole proprietorship, notably in terms of minimum share capital and incorporation fees. The advantages above can justify these costs, depending on each entrepreneur's goals.
