This concise guide covers the essentials — company domiciliation Geneva, registered office Geneva, business address Geneva, virtual office Geneva — so you can select a compliant, right‑sized setup.

What domiciliation includes

  • Registered office address in Geneva (for Commercial Register, invoices, website).

  • Signage/mailbox depending on plan.
  • Common add‑ons: meeting room booking, fixed phone number, visitor reception.

Compliance and good practice

  • Keep registry data consistent (name, purpose, signatories).
  • Maintain a valid domiciliation agreement and identification docs (KYC/AML).
  • Organise mail workflows (SLA, confidentiality, mandates).
  • Domiciliation ≠ leased office: for frequent team/client presence, add meeting options or a flex desk.

Domiciliation vs coworking vs office

  • Domiciliation: address + admin services, lower cost.
  • Coworking: shared space by day/month, more on‑site presence.
