Are you a cross-border worker or self-employed?
For a G permit for self-employed individuals, the OCPM carefully reviews the nature and viability of your business in Geneva. A mere mailing address may not be sufficient to justify your permit.
Our tip: Combine your business address with a coworking membership to put together a strong application.

Why Register Your Business in Switzerland?
You live abroad and would like to form an Sàrl or SA in Switzerland
Swiss law requires that at least one person domiciled in Switzerland be authorized to represent the company with signing authority: a managing partner or director (Sàrl), or a director or executive (SA). This person does not need to be a shareholder. Our registered office service establishes your corporate headquarters in Geneva. For additional procedures (resident representative, opening a bank account), we can refer you to our partners.
You have a company abroad and are setting up a branch in Switzerland
The Swiss branch must have a registered office in the canton and an authorized representative. Our address is accepted as the registered office for branches of foreign companies.
You are a cross-border worker and are starting your own sole proprietorship
The OCPM reviews the nature of your business before issuing or modifying your G license. A registered address alone may be deemed insufficient. To strengthen your application, combine your registered address with a coworking membership or a permanent office space.

Your Questions, Our Answers
How long will it take to receive my contract and certificate?
Please allow at least 48 hours from the time we receive all the required documents: proof of identity + an extract from the Commercial Register or proof of address, to be sent to info@foound.ch. The contract and certificate can then be picked up in person, by appointment via Calendly on our contact page.
Can I register FOOUND as my registered office with the Commercial Registry?
Yes. Our address is accepted as the registered office for Sàrl, SA, sole proprietorships, and associations. Upon request, we will issue you the official certificate (25.–) to be included with your registration application.

The Scan Plan is perfect for you: receive all your mail scanned and sent to you by email every Tuesday, without having to go anywhere.
How do I cancel?
From your member portal, in just two clicks. One month's notice required. We retain your mail for 30 days after the contract ends.
What are the payment terms?
Credit card on file for automatic monthly payments. Other payment methods are available upon request.
Can I register a sole proprietorship with FOOUND?
Yes, a registered address is available to self-employed individuals and sole proprietorships, as well as to Sàrl, SA, and branch offices. However, the Geneva Commercial Registry may require proof of actual business activity in the canton: to build a strong case, combine your registered address with a coworking membership. Our guide to registered addresses in Geneva provides details on Sàrl, sole proprietorships, and G permits.
I'm a cross-border worker: Is a registered address enough?
A mailing address alone may not be enough: the OCPM assesses the viability of your business in Switzerland. A registered address combined with a coworking space (starting at 76.–/month) provides you with a real professional infrastructure in Geneva.
How much does a business address in Geneva cost with FOOUND?
Starting at 40.–/month (Basic), 80.–/month with weekly mail notifications (Tracking), 110.–/month with weekly scanning (Scan). Net prices in CHF, no setup fees, one month’s notice required. The certificate for the Commercial Register is optional (25.–).
Which plan should I choose?
Sign up if you regularly pass by Cornavin. Stay updated to know when to come, so you don't make unnecessary trips. Sign up for the email version if you're abroad or never come by: your newsletter will be sent to you by email every week.
Can I meet with my clients at this address?
Yes. FOOUND is a real venue: meeting rooms starting at 15 CHF/hour, an on-site café-restaurant, and just 5 minutes from the Cornavin train station. With a membership subscription (29.–/month), you get 50% off the meeting rooms.
