Frequently asked questions
These are general answers. A conversation helps apply them to your situation.
When should I consider a Sàrl instead of a sole proprietorship?
The answer depends on your project, risks, financing and preferred organisation. A Sàrl requires minimum share capital and incorporation steps; a sole proprietorship has no minimum capital requirement. Discussing your circumstances helps determine the right approach.
What documents do I need for a Geneva tax return?
Gather documents supporting your income, assets, debts and claimed deductions, as applicable. Salary certificates and bank or insurance statements may be relevant. The exact list depends on your circumstances.
Do I need to register for VAT when I start a business?
Not in every case. VAT registration depends on the relevant turnover and the nature of the services. Voluntary registration may also be considered. We can review the question with you.
Can you take over bookkeeping that has already started?
A handover can be assessed after reviewing available records, existing entries and upcoming deadlines. An initial meeting helps define the next steps.
What is included in the registered address service?
A registered address gives your business a professional address for its registered office. The terms, including mail handling, are agreed with you based on your legal form and needs. Contact us to discuss them.
How does a working relationship begin?
We start with a conversation about your needs, review the relevant documents and prepare an offer before beginning ongoing support.
How should I prepare for our first meeting?
Briefly describe your business or personal circumstances, any ongoing procedures and the deadlines that concern you. Prepare your questions and tell us which records you have available. We then agree which documents are relevant; you do not need to submit sensitive records through the initial contact form.
Can I ask for help with a specific need?
The first conversation defines the scope of your request: a tax return, accounting follow-up, payroll or company formation steps, for example. We review your needs and the information available before proposing suitable support.
How do you support legal-related procedures?
Our support draws on our legal knowledge and diplomas in paralegal studies. We start by understanding your request and the records available. We help organise your file, prepare administrative formalities and follow the agreed steps. If your circumstances require specialist legal analysis or action before a court, we help prepare the points to discuss with a lawyer.
