I want to start my own business.


I have an idea, enthusiasm, the desire to do something meaningful.

But very quickly, the questions arise:

  • Which status to choose?

  • How to manage taxation?

  • What expenses to anticipate?

  • And what if I make a bad choice right from the start…?

Starting a business seems simple, but every decision matters.

Some mistakes are not immediately visible and can slow down your project later.

I need support.

Not just guidance, but support. Someone who understands my situation, my goals, my constraints.

I want to lay solid foundations to move forward calmly and focus on what matters: developing my idea and bringing it to life.

The key choices for your project

🏛️ Legal form

Sàrl, SA, sole proprietorship… and what if we talked about your real life?

Choosing a legal structure is not just ticking a box. It defines how you will pay your taxes, distribute your risks, manage your responsibilities… and sleep at night. We don’t throw a Wikipedia list at you — we listen, we analyse your needs (both present and future), and we guide you towards the structure that best fits your reality. Less legal jargon, more strategic decisions. Because having a business is good. But having the right structure to help it evolve is better.

📜 Choice of statutes

Well-drafted statutes mean 80% fewer problems.

The statutes are the skeleton of your business. And like any good skeleton, if it’s wobbly, it shows quickly. Poorly drafted, too vague, or copied from a dubious template, they can blow up in your face at the first disagreement or change in shareholding. At fidflow, we check your statutes as we draft a good contract: clear, solid, balanced, and without surprises. You maintain control, and we ensure everything is rock solid from the start.

🤝 Shareholders' agreement

Better a good pact than a bad lawsuit.

You get along really well with your partners. For now. Because as soon as money, power, or disagreements come into play, it can quickly becomeGame of Thrones. A well-thought-out shareholders' agreement is your safety net: voting rights, exit clauses, dividends, resale restrictions… everything is covered, in black and white. We help you ask the right questions (even the uncomfortable ones) and draft an agreement that protects everyone without killing the vibe. Because a clear pact makes for lasting friendships.

Frequently asked questions

Here are some frequently asked questions about starting a business.

It depends. Are you alone? A limited liability company (Sàrl) or a sole proprietorship may be sufficient. Are you several and thinking big? Perhaps a public limited company (SA). Are you unsure? That's normal. We advise you before sending you to the notary.

On average, 2 to 3 weeks if everything is ready. If you leave it to the last minute with a dodgy Word file, expect a bit longer.

Yes, if you want to create a limited liability company (Sàrl) or a public limited company (SA). No, if you opt for a sole proprietorship.

But in any case,there is paperwork and signatures. And costs. And annoying things that we can manage for you.

Yes. For a limited liability company (Sàrl):20,000 CHF minimum, for a public limited company (SA):100,000 CHF(of which 50,000 paid in).

The capital is temporarily blocked in an account, then released once the company is registered.

Not a huge deal, but you need to plan for it.

Not necessarily. The obligation starts from100,000 CHF in annual turnover.

But depending on your activity, it may be wise to register from the outset (for example, to deduct VAT on your business purchases). We help you clarify this.

You are wasting time, potentially money, and you risk having to start all over again.
