Services are quoted on request, so no price appears here. Prefer to talk first? Contact the Legal department.

How we handle your data
With your enquiry the form also sends the context of your visit: IP address, city-level location, network, browser, language, referrer, the pages you viewed, device and screen size, cookie state and analytics ID. We use it to answer you and to keep the form safe. The Privacy Policy gives the detail. The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile and a hidden field that humans never see. No card data is taken here, and no files are uploaded.
Questions before you start
Does sending this form open my company?
No. It starts a file. We review the enquiry and reply by email. Formation is a trustee activity (TrHG Art. 2(a)), so a licensed Liechtenstein trustee named in your engagement letter performs it, while we prepare and coordinate the file.
Which documents will you need?
The list depends on the company type. We send it after we reply, through a protected link. The documents table on this page shows the usual items and the rule each comes from, so you can see what to expect before you decide to go ahead.
Can I upload documents on this form?
No. This form takes no files. Identity and company documents are requested after we reply, through a protected link, so no personal documents sit on the page and nothing sensitive travels with the first enquiry.
Do you publish prices?
No. Our services are quoted on request, once we understand the file. Official register fees are published with their source and year, for example the CHF 700 basic fee for an AG or a GmbH (GbHr-GebV Anhang 2 B.1, version of 1 August 2024).
