Business permit (autorisation d’établissement)

Before trading begins, many commercial, craft, passenger or goods transport, and HORECA activities must obtain a business permit. Prepare: identification and KYC, proof of professional integrity, diplomas or experience where the activity is regulated, evidence of premises (registered office or lease), and draft articles. Applications are submitted online. We compile a complete, well‑structured dossier so your file is handled efficiently in line with Luxembourg requirements.

Banking, onboarding and compliance

• Bank introductions: Introductions to selected partners in Luxembourg and Switzerland who routinely onboard founders, family holdings and investment vehicles.
• KYC/AML: Preparation of UBO charts, source‑of‑funds narrative and onboarding questionnaires aligned with Luxembourg AML/CTF standards.
• Ongoing compliance: RCS filings, Luxembourg VAT registration where applicable, bookkeeping and tax, and—if required—board/director mandates.
