Document background
The Company Registration Letter is a crucial document in the Swiss business formation process, required by the Commercial Register Office to officially establish a new business entity. This document is mandatory under Swiss law and must be prepared when founding any type of company, whether it's a corporation (AG), limited liability company (GmbH), or other business forms. The letter must include specific information required by Swiss regulations, such as company details, founding members' information, share capital confirmation, and management structure. It forms part of the complete registration package along with supporting documents like articles of association and bank confirmations. The document must comply with both federal and cantonal requirements, and often requires notarization to be legally valid in Switzerland.
