k-Ownership company (AG) Capital gets divided into stocks, e.g.10’000 stocks for nominal price of 10.
If somebody owns 1000 shares, then he owns 10%.
Shares can
An AG requires a minimum capital of 100K CHF.50K must be delivered in cash or as assets.

 

Only the AG with its assets Profit of the company is taxed separate from owner’s tax declarations.First the AG pays taxes on its profit.

If the company pays out dividends to the owners, then those must pay taxes again. Hence taxes at two places, some call it double-taxation.
Still the AG has the option to avoid dividend pay-outs. In my case, I could avoid payouts until my retirement, when my normal income is lower. Certainly this situation changes when more shares holders come into play with a liquidity event. They might want pay-outs.

Taxes on the profit must be paid on three levels:
Swiss confederation, canton and single towns.

Cantons also require also a tax on the capital.between 0.01  and 7 per thousand.

Limited in Bulgaria

Idea:

  • Replace company in Switzerland with BG Company, because of the bank
  • Can explain to bank that I invested in a startup company
  • Better than my own Swiss company

 

  • Limited Liability, LTD without access to persons

 

Bookkeeping:

BG need to a lot of detail, each booking of credit card, but Swiss do not need much detail, do not need invoices.

Example: can put all Paypal from China, because the Paypal itself counts as invoice.

Conclusion

Swiss bookkeeping will be cheaper and easy than BG bookkeeping.
