What type of company do you register in Switzerland?
The two types of company that we form in Geneva - Switzerland are known as S.A. (Société anonyme) and S.A.R.L. (Société A Responsabilité Limitée). The Canton’s Register acts as a monitoring body. -
What is the difference between S.A. and S.A.R.L.?
These two types of companies are called in the French language S.A. (Société anonyme) and S.A.R.L. (Société A Responsabilité Limitée) and are equivalent to a Public Limited Company (PLC) and Limited Liability Company (LLC) respectively.

Yes.Please refer to our complete guide about a swiss company taxation. -

Will my liability be limited if I register my company as SA or SARL in Geneva, Switzerland?
The shareholders’ liability in an SARL is the amount of share capital that they have invested. However, additional payments may be imposed if and when required to cover losses, or in case such clause is stipulated in the articles of association of the company. These additional payments cannot exceed twice the value of the company share capital.
