Why You, as a Foreign Entrepreneur, Need a Board Member in Switzerland
In Switzerland, anyone can establish a company, even without a Swiss passport. However, a critical element is often underestimated: the obligation for local representation.
Specifically, every AG (public limited company) or GmbH (limited liability company) in Switzerland must have at least one person registered in the commercial register who resides in Switzerland and can legally represent the company. This role is typically fulfilled by a board member (for an AG) or a managing director (for a GmbH).
