Swiss joint-stock company AG for sale / Canton of Zug
Swiss joint-stock company AG for sale / Canton of Zug
Home Offshore companies: / How to choose an offshore company / Holding companies for sale / Switzerland (recommended for obtaining loans, bank guarantees, investments and holding activities)Ready-made companies in Switzerland are always sold with 100% paid-up share capital; the shares may be registered or bearer shares. If necessary, we arrange a rapid change of share type and any other changes to the company: name, activities and address. We recommend using a company address in the Swiss Canton of Zug. If required, we can arrange full economic presence — substance: an office, secretary, signage on the building, corporate website, trademark, documented assets, staff and salary payments under employment contracts, utility bills, audit of the accounts and any other services you require.
At the client's choice, nominee and fiduciary services are provided, as well as the full range of trust services on behalf of a Swiss trust company.
What are the differences between the Swiss companies offered for sale?
The main difference of the Swiss companies we offer is that they are ready-made functional instruments prepared for the required result — earning profit for the new owner. You do not need to meet the owners, wait for the transfer, change of directors, address and canton, document checks or audit: a traditional purchase can take up to one month or longer, and during that time you may lose a profitable contract because the timing is uncertain. We have already dealt with all these points. All Swiss companies offered for sale have already been transferred to our office and our directors, an audit has been carried out, and at least three years have passed since the transfer. According to the source text, this provides a 100% guarantee that the company has no risks connected with previous owners.
After buying our company, you can use the bank details of your new company on the same day and issue an invoice or sign a sale and purchase agreement, supply agreement or any other agreement. On the day of the transaction, you will have access to the company seal, a rectangular stamp that you can use in transactions, and a complete set of apostilled company documents. You also immediately receive a power of attorney with a full set of powers. Your new Swiss AG will already have a corporate website, its own web domain and corporate email, and the possibility to use office premises at the registered address.
We do not sell “document packages”, because we understand that a business needs a complete solution aimed at the result the buyer wants. If you have special requirements for the year of registration, have a limited transaction budget and have enough time to complete all formal procedures for buying the company from its previous owners, we can find a company in any Swiss canton, of the required year and business profile, and transfer it to our office for administration under our management. This solution will always cost less, but it will take more time to complete the transfer and move the company to Canton Zug. On the other hand, if your budget is currently limited to a certain amount, we recommend setting realistic objectives and starting with simpler solutions — for example, a holding company in the United Kingdom.
A Swiss company in the form of an AG joint-stock company is a strong option for starting a medium or large business, acquiring corporate rights and shares in enterprises, participating in international transactions and tenders, obtaining financing and bank guarantees, and acquiring, disposing of and managing investments of any kind, know-how, licences, patents and other intellectual property; managing, acquiring and disposing of enterprises; and creating and establishing joint ventures in other countries. At your request, we also provide full outsourcing of the Swiss company's business processes, taking into account international rules in taxation, financial management and capital planning. This can help organise the company's operations, reduce business costs, manage financial and tax risks and earn more profit while focusing attention on the principal business matters.

Bank guarantee. Obtaining credit in Switzerland. Investments.
Today, if you need a company for arranging SWIFT MT 760 guarantees (what an MT760 guarantee is — specialist comments), LC letters of credit | Stand-By SBLC | Ready-made companies for work with bank guarantees BG | SBLC | LC — we also propose using investment and financial solutions together with Swiss holding companies ready-made companies in the United Kingdom with paid-up capital that provides sufficient coverage when bank ratios are calculated. Combined with a Swiss holding company, this structure is presented as a universal arrangement in which the Swiss company owns a UK company with significant capitalisation. This makes it possible to revalue the shares so that a Swiss company with capital divided into 10,000,000 shares can show total assets of CHF 10–50 million, with the value per share increasing accordingly and showing a continuing growth trend. According to the source text, profitability and the significant amount of own assets created by revaluation of financial investments provide a basis for keeping the bank ratios used to calculate lending terms within the bank's requirements. In many countries, the capital of a company receiving a financial instrument is expected to be at least EUR 1,000,000. For this purpose, we offer ready-made companies with paid-up and verifiable capital from GBP 2 million to GBP 50 million, whose balance sheets include investment-fund securities of equivalent value. For a holding company with subsidiaries, the required amount can be evidenced in the balance sheet; the mechanism described in the source is ownership of securities.
A company with a significant amount of paid-up capital may also be used as a founder or shareholder of a bank or insurance company or as a tender participant — in other words, where statutory or tender requirements call for the applicant to have significant own capital.
Banking confidentiality in Switzerland 2026
We draw your attention to a point that, according to the source text, is often overlooked in press discussions of banking confidentiality in Switzerland and Liechtenstein: initiatives for information exchange, including with the United States and EU countries, concern exclusively personal accounts of individuals who are non-residents of Switzerland (specifically US and EU citizens), which, according to the source text, you most likely are not) and do not extend to legal entities (Swiss companies and holding companies or offshore companies).
Important point — who is the director of a Swiss company
The directors and managers of the Swiss companies are exclusively Swiss citizens holding Swiss passports. We do not use and do not recommend appointing citizens of the former USSR or compatriots who have obtained residence permits in Germany as managers. According to the source text, the residence status and image of companies with a director such as Ivan Pentrenko or Dmytro Pilugin deprive a Swiss company of the advantages associated with Swiss management. The source further states that the directors do not plan to visit Ukraine or countries of the former USSR and therefore cannot be questioned there by public authorities as witnesses or officers of Swiss companies while they are in Ukraine, Eastern Europe or Kazakhstan.
As an example of such arrangements, the source refers to billboards of a pseudo-Swiss company offering “Swiss companies” at accessible prices where the directors are citizens of Ukraine and Eastern Europe temporarily residing in Switzerland.
