handelsregister

Experience has shown that the Zug Commercial Register Office receives several times the usual number of transactions and requests for preliminary review during the months of November and December. Therefore, longer processing times than usual should be expected toward the end of the year. Transactions that must be registered by the end of December 2026 should therefore be submitted early, but no later than December 10, 2026 (receipt by the Commercial Register Office).

Transactions received after December 10, 2026, will be processed as quickly as possible within the limits of our capacity. We will make every effort to ensure that as many of these transactions as possible are still registered by the end of the year.

If a preliminary review of the relevant drafts is requested, these must be submitted by December 3, 2026. Please note that, as a general rule, no preliminary reviews will be conducted from December 3, 2026, through the end of the year. The only exceptions are more complex or larger transactions, subject to prior consultation.

Please be advised that we will also be available to assist you between Christmas and New Year’s Day.

In the documents linked above, you will find general information as well as details on business registration, company searches, certifications, changes to registration, document requests, and other services provided by the Commercial Registry.
