A sole trader is owned by a single person resident in Switzerland who trades under their own name. The surname of the owner must appear in the name of a Swiss sole trader though it may be accompanied by additions.<\/p>\n

This business structure is well suited to self-employed people, such as doctors, lawyers, architects and tradespeople. The owner receives all profits from the business but is also personally liable for all losses. It is however possible to convert a sole trader into a SA (Public Limited Company) or a SARL (Private Limited Company).<\/p>\n

Our experts, who are specialists in Swiss law, accountancy and tax, will assist you throughout the setting up your business as a sole trader.<\/p>\n
