A resident director for
your Swiss company.
A Swiss Sàrl or SA must be represented by at least one person domiciled in Switzerland (art. 718 / 814 CO). A Swiss CPA takes on that statutory role: a real mandate with a defined scope and professional indemnity cover, not an offshore nominee.
A statutory mandate, handled with real rigour.
Klear satisfies your company's legal requirement for a resident representative, with the accountability of a Swiss CPA, not a name on paper.
Statutory representation
Klear acts as the director/manager domiciled in Switzerland that your Sàrl or SA needs to satisfy art. 718 para. 4 / 814 para. 3 CO, the requirement that lets the company be entered and kept in the commercial register.
- Registered as director/manager with signatory power
- Swiss CPA (Expert-comptable diplômé)
- Domiciled in Geneva, Switzerland
A defined scope, not a nominee

Frequently asked questions
Swiss law (art. 814 para. 3 CO for a Sàrl/LLC, art. 718 para. 4 CO for an SA) requires that a company can be represented by at least one person domiciled in Switzerland. Without one, the company cannot be entered, or kept, in the commercial register.
