A Société Anonyme, SA (Public Limited Company) is one of the most trusted and highly renowned business structures in Switzerland. These companies are extremely complex to establish without competent professionals, know-how or expertise.

Our experts, who are specialists in Swiss law, accountancy and tax, will guide you through the entire process of creating your Swiss Société Anonyme (Public Limited Company).

What are the advantages of a public limited company?

  • Shareholders remain anonymous.
  • You do not need to travel to set up your company.
  • Bearer shares make share transfers easier.
  • You benefit from favourable international tax treaties.

What steps are involved?

Our goal is to create your SA (Public Limited Company) within 15 days. You can concentrate on the business while Amedia Fiduciary takes care of the rest.

  • Studies and analysis of your venture by telephone, Skype or at our offices.
  • Verification of the availability of your company’s name at the Companies Registry Office. A Société Anonyme (Public Limited Company) must be registered in the Companies Registry at the place of the registered office.
  • Opening of an account for depositing the share capital (min. CHF 50,000) pending filing with the Companies Registry. A deposit declaration will be provided to you once the sums have been paid in. We only need proof of identification for this step.
  • You will need to visit a notary for signing the original incorporation deed. This deed will contain the articles of association and appoint the governing bodies. The notary will take responsibility for the statutory steps and obligation for public disclosure.
  • Opening of the company’s bank account and release of the capital once received from the Companies Registry Office. The Société Anonyme, SA (Public Limited Company) then has its own funds and the deposit account is closed.
  • Establishment of your accounting plan, we will assist you in complying with Swiss regulations and any other of your needs.
