What is the difference between a transfer of registered office and a change of address in a Swiss company?
Antwort
A transfer of registered office means moving the legal seat to another municipality. This requires an amendment of the articles of association and must be notarised. A change of address, by contrast, only affects the business address within the same municipality and does not require an amendment of the articles.
