Setting up a business

When establishing a company, the primary question invariably centers on the most appropriate legal form.

The most frequently-chosen legal form is either that of a limited corporation (in German, "Aktiengesellschaft " or "AG") or a limited liability company (in German, "Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung" or "GmbH").

 

The brochure "Guide to setting up a business in Canton Zug" explains the formation procedure. The brochure "zug : doing business" deals with the following subjects:

  • Pre-conditions for setting up a company
  • Legal form
  • Registration procedure
  • Start-up costs
  • Time requirements.
