Why a Swiss Board Member Is Essential for International Founders

Why International Entrepreneurs Need a Swiss Board Member

Switzerland is one of the world’s top destinations for business formation — known for its stability, tax advantages, and legal security. But if you're a non-resident looking to set up a company in Switzerland — whether an AG or a GmbH — there’s a crucial legal requirement:

You must appoint at least one signatory with official residence in Switzerland.

This Swiss representative must be registered in the Swiss Commercial Register and authorized to legally represent the company.

RB Swiss Group provides not just advice, but concrete solutions — including qualified board members and authorized signatories to ensure your company is legally compliant, secure, and professionally represented.
