Branch office

Are you looking to establish a branch office in Switzerland?

A branch office is a secondary establishment with a certain amount of independence in its management. However, it does not have legal personality as it depends directly on its parent company.
The creation of a branch office in Switzerland is attractive for Swiss and foreign businesses. It allows them to develop new national and international markets.

What are the advantages of a branch office?

• Flexible management: branch offices can have offices and employ staff in Switzerland.
• Capital: there is no need for lodging funds to open a branch office in Switzerland.
• Tax advantages: no withholding tax to be applied. The branch office is subject to ordinary tax rates in Switzerland.
• Accountancy: fewer obligations on submitting accounts, unlike other business structures. A branch office maintains its bookkeeping separate from its parent company.
