Switzerland is often regarded as an offshore company location along with many other offshore jurisdictions. However unlike other “brass plate” jurisdictions it enjoys relatively low tax rates, a reputation for quality and security and is enviably located in the heart of Europe and, whilst not a member of the EU, enjoys many bilateral treaties with the EU as well as an extensive range of International Double Tax Treaties.
Many International Companies and Entrepreneurs decide to incorporate in Switzerland for these reasons and in some cases decide to take up the option of personal residency.
