Can a trust
be a member of the LVC

Usually no — a trust is often not a simple legal person in the PGR sense; UBO and KYC get harder, not invisible. The agent must not enter a trust as a silent member.

Go to foundingStart as agent

Not legal advice. Agents can pay and start. Humans stay in the loop for KYC, acceptance and filing. Prices and timelines may change; official fees are separate.

Trust and LVC

Natural persons as members are the default.

UBO chain must be open — UBO.

Structure question for counsel, not intake hack.

Practice & limits (deepened)

Two identifiable people are Digihub’s gov-seed minimum: real name, role, share, KYC. Invented co-founders, “anonymous” signing or chat placeholders are hard stops. Spouses can be the second person — with a real role, not decoration.

Non-residents found with the same identity logic. Residence, visa or tax residence are not invented by the agent. UBOs/beneficial owners must be visible where identity and register logic require it. Trusts or legal-person members raise complexity and advice needs.

Ident may be video or in person — depending on provider and case. Acceptance/signing and filing stay human. /en/requirements, KYC guides, foreign-founder guide.

Specifically on «Can a trust be a member of the LVC?»: Usually no — clarify first. A trust is often not a simple legal person in the PGR sense. UBO and KYC get harder, not more invisible. The agent must not enter a trust as a silent member or turn it into a Stiftung. This deepening is preview orientation — not legal or tax advice. Verify against AJU, gesetze.li and advisers. Entries: found, LVC, guides.

Orientation vs advice?

These pages explain the Digihub path and limits. Binding answers: authority, LLV, advisers — not chat.

Which internal links should an agent cite?

/en/found, /en/lvc, matching /en/guides/* page, and capital guides when money is involved. Never claim the preview is the authority.
