Capital Deposit Account Switzerland GmbH – Fast & Compliant Setup with RB Swiss Group

When founding a GmbH in Switzerland, opening a capital deposit account (Kapitaleinzahlungskonto) is a mandatory legal step. Without this account and the corresponding bank confirmation, your company cannot be registered in the Swiss Commercial Register.
At RB Swiss Group, we assist entrepreneurs and international investors with the complete incorporation process — including efficient and compliant Swiss bank account opening.

What Is a Capital Deposit Account?

A capital deposit account Switzerland GmbH is a temporary blocked bank account used to deposit the legally required minimum share capital of CHF 20,000 before the company is incorporated.
The funds remain blocked until the GmbH is officially registered. After registration, the account is converted into a regular business account and the capital becomes available to the company.
The legal framework is defined in the Swiss Code of Obligations:

How the Process Works

1. Document Preparation

You will need draft articles of association, identification documents of shareholders and managing directors, and details about the business activity and ownership structure.
We support clients throughout the Swiss company formation process to ensure all documentation meets banking standards.

2. Bank Selection & Compliance

Swiss banks apply strict compliance rules supervised by FINMA:

They verify:
  • Identity of shareholders
  • Source of funds
  • Ultimate beneficial owners
  • Economic purpose of the company
Choosing the right bank is crucial to avoid delays. Through our expertise in Swiss bank account opening, we coordinate directly with suitable banking partners.

3. Capital Deposit & Registration

Once approved:
  • CHF 20,000 is transferred
  • The bank issues a capital confirmation letter
  • The notary completes incorporation
  • The Commercial Register finalizes registration
  • The account converts into a standard business account

Challenges for International Founders

Foreign shareholders often face enhanced compliance checks and additional documentation requests. Without proper preparation, account opening can be delayed or rejected.
RB Swiss Group ensures that all documents are structured correctly and communicated efficiently with the bank, significantly reducing processing time.
