Would you like to establish your company in Switzerland and expand into the European/ EMEA market? We are the right partner for you to reach the next level. With us, you develop your local and cross-border activities – from setting up the European market organization and optimising your supply chain to finding the talents you are looking for.
Companies that want to survive and be successful in today's global market must be positioned internationally. Expanding abroad bears many challenges, as the legal and tax frameworks differ from country to country.
Start your journey with us.
Switzerland: gateway to EMEA
A presence in Switzerland brings many advantages for companies: a stable economic and political environment, an efficient banking sector, an excellent infrastructure, and a high standard of living. Close ties with global and emerging markets, strong relationships in EMEA and a favourable tax system are further reasons for companies to invest and set up business in Switzerland.
We support you in the following areas
Switzerland offers and will offer among the lowest corporate tax rates of continental Europe even in light of the two major global tax changes ahead of us (OECD developments with global minimum taxation, open outcome of US tax reform under President Biden). Our PwC experts help you to establish your business operations in a tax effective manner, making best use of Switzerland’s globally embedded tax environment.
Expanding into new markets impacts your transfer pricing. In addition, a stronger focus on sustainable business practices, transparency, and your own company calls for a review of your transfer pricing system. We comprehend the changes to your value chain and show you how to develop and implement sustainable transfer pricing models based on your specific requirements.
We help you to open up new sales channels and to optimise your cross-border business, while considering all tax challenges and the fact that international trade and e-commerce have fundamentally changed, and physical and online worlds are highly interconnected.
Thereby, indirect taxes – including VAT/GST/sales tax, customs, and excise duties – are becoming more challenging globally. Governments are increasingly looking at indirect taxes as a revenue source; real-time reporting and e-invoicing are high on their agenda to improve compliance. PwC’s Swiss Indirect Tax team ensures that your indirect tax processes and data are up-to-date and reliable.
Are you looking for agile and flexible solutions to attract international talent for your new Swiss subsidiary? We are pleased to offer you our services for global mobility (incl. immigration and visa) and strategic workforce planning. You can also benefit from our many years of consulting experience in the field of human capital (body leasing, managed services – e.g. payroll –, upskilling, and remote work).
Let us discuss the legal aspects of start-ups, mergers and relocations to Switzerland and take care of them for you.
We are also happy to take the necessary steps to register and secure your intellectual property in Switzerland and to help with your key daily legal matters.
