By when must the commercial register application for 2013 be made?

If a company is to be established this year, the commercial register application must be submitted soon. Otherwise, it can no longer be guaranteed that a company can be entered into the commercial register before the end of the year.

Commercial register application must be submitted soon

Towards the end of the year, many people always want to register a new company in the commercial register. In addition, there are also many transformations and mergers that are carried out during this time. Therefore, the application to the commercial registry office should be made as soon as possible if it is intended to establish a company still in the year 2013. If the application is submitted late, it is possible that the registration will not take place until January 2014.

To ensure that the registration can still be made in time, the complete documents should be submitted by December 9, 2013. However, there are big differences between cantons that must be taken into account. For the canton of Zug, December 9, 2013, is the last date. A bit more time is available if the intention is to have the commercial register entry made in the canton of St. Gallen. The same applies in Nidwalden on December 13. For the canton of Schwyz, the last date is December 15, in Solothurn it is December 17. It should also be noted that any necessary notarial certifications must be carried out beforehand.
