Find a register office on Zefix ↗Swiss company search
Look up a company on Zefix.
If you need information about a registered business, start with Zefix, the federal Central Business Name Index. Its search interface is available in English.
Search by company name and check the registered office to identify the correct business. You can then follow the link to the relevant cantonal register for its entry and available documents.
Search for a Swiss company ↗Need a certified register extract?
Checking an online entry is different from ordering a certified extract. If a bank or business partner requests certification, check the relevant office’s ordering instructions, fees and delivery options.
Your questions
Using the Swiss register directory.
Practical answers for English-speaking business owners and anyone researching a Swiss company.
How do I search for a company in Switzerland?
Use Zefix, the federal Central Business Name Index, to search for registered businesses across Switzerland. Check the company name and registered office, then follow the link to the relevant cantonal register.
Which commercial register office should I contact?
Start with the canton where the company has its registered office. A canton is a Swiss regional state. Valais has three register districts, so check which office covers the company’s location.
Is Zefix the same as a cantonal commercial register?
Zefix is a national search tool. For administrative enquiries, updates on a filing or a certified extract, use the relevant cantonal office and its official procedures.
Can I find Swiss commercial register information in English?
Zefix has an English interface, and our linked cantonal pages explain the practical details in English. Official cantonal websites, forms and supporting documents may be available only in French, German or Italian.
Where can I check opening hours and appointment requirements?
Open the page for your canton, then check the office’s official website before travelling. Opening hours and appointment requirements vary between offices.
