Switzerland is located in central Europe, where it is surrounded by Austria, Italy, France, and Germany. The country is a federal republic divided into 26 cantons. The capital is Berne, but Zürich is its main city. Each canton determines its own taxation, and some have advantageous tax levels. Municipal taxes vary depending on the municipality. We can incorporate your Swiss company in Geneva and apply for special “offshore” status.
