Legal Requirement

Why a Swiss Business Address Is Mandatory

The Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) Art. 117 requires every company to have a domicile address in Switzerland. This address must appear in the commercial register (CHRB) and is used for all official correspondence, including from tax authorities, courts, and regulators.

Commercial Register Entry (CHRB)

Your address appears in the public commercial register (Handelsregister), visible to any person searching ZEFIX. This is the primary reference for your company's legal identity in Switzerland.

Official Correspondence Address

All correspondence from Swiss courts, cantonal authorities, the tax authority (Steuerverwaltung), and FINMA is addressed to your registered address. Missing critical correspondence at an incorrect address can have serious legal consequences.

Tax Domicile Establishment

The registered address in Zug means your company is tax-resident in Canton Zug — the lowest-tax Swiss canton. This determines which cantonal tax authority has jurisdiction and which cantonal rate applies.

Bank Account Opening

Swiss banks require a commercial register extract showing a Swiss address before opening a corporate account. Without a valid Swiss address, corporate banking in Switzerland is impossible.

VAT Registration

Swiss VAT registration (MWST) with the ESTV requires a verifiable Swiss business address. Our address is accepted for VAT registration purposes.

Treaty Benefits

Having a genuine Swiss registered address is a prerequisite for claiming benefits under Switzerland's 96 double taxation treaties. A sham address or foreign address cannot support a treaty residency claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Swiss Business Address FAQ

CHRB stands for Centralised Commercial Register of Switzerland (Zentrales Firmenregister). A CHRB-compliant address means the address format, location, and documentation meet the technical requirements for entry in the cantonal commercial register and the centralised ZEFIX database.
Yes. Multiple legal entities can be registered at the same domiciliation address. Each company is registered separately in the commercial register with its own entry. We charge per legal entity. Many clients register a holding company and one or more operating subsidiaries at our Zug address.
Changing the registered address requires filing an amendment with the cantonal commercial register. We assist clients with the amendment process. The register fee is approximately CHF 150-300 depending on the type of change. The new address must be covered by a valid domiciliation agreement with the new address provider.
