Frequent questions from Glarus
Can Planet do the accounting for a Glarus industrial business?

Usually two to four weeks once all documents are in place — depending on your canton's commercial register. With prepared documents it goes faster; our checklist helps with that.
How much capital do I need?
For a GmbH at least CHF 20'000 (fully paid in), for an AG at least CHF 100'000 (of which CHF 50'000 paid in). The sole proprietorship has no capital requirement.
