Commercial register extracts

You order the certified translation of a Swiss commercial register extract from a dedicated online service, which you reach from the ‘Commercial register extract’ card on the Corrext home page. The process has four steps: find the company by its name or its identification number, choose the certification level, choose the delivery method, then set the delivery time. The service covers more than 30 languages.

1. On the Corrext home page, click the Commercial register extract card: a separate online service opens.
2. Search for the company by its name or by its business identification number (UID).
3. Select the company you found and choose the target language of the translation.
4. Choose one of the three certification levels offered.
5. Choose the delivery method, then the delivery time you need.
6. Confirm with the Order a translation button, or use Contact us for a specific request.

Three certification levels are offered for the translation of a commercial register extract. Standard certification provides a signed and stamped certificate that accompanies the translation. Notarised certification adds the involvement of a Swiss notary. Notarised and apostilled certification also adds the apostille issued by the cantonal State Chancellery under the Hague Apostille Convention, which is required for many uses abroad.

1. Once you have found the company, go to the step where you select the certification level.
2. Choose Standard Corrext Certification for a signed and stamped certificate that accompanies the translation.
3. Choose Notarized Certification when the receiving authority requires the involvement of a Swiss notary.
4. Choose Notarized & Apostilled Certification when the document is to be submitted abroad under the Hague Apostille Convention.
5. If in doubt, ask the recipient which level they require: it determines whether the document will be accepted.

The last two steps of the order cover how the document is delivered. First choose the delivery method: by email only, or by email with a paper copy sent by post or by courier. Then set the delivery time, standard or express, in Switzerland or abroad. A paper copy is essential whenever an original signature, a notarisation or an apostille is required.

1. Once you have chosen the certification level, go to the delivery method step.
2. Choose delivery by email if an electronic version is enough for your recipient.
3. Choose delivery by email and on paper, by post or by courier, whenever a signed original is required.
4. Go to the delivery time step and choose between standard and express.
5. Specify the destination, Switzerland or abroad, which determines the shipping options.
6. Confirm the order with the Order a translation button.
