As the Swiss economy is very decentralised and legislation may differ from one Canton to another, it is advisable to contact the Chamber of Commerce of the Canton where you wish to invest. Below is a list of the different Cantonal Chambers of Commerce.
Their websites provide a description of the services they offer to businesses and how to become a member, as well as e-mail and telephone contact details.
