Find your company
What this step does
Section titled “What this step does”It ties your account to your company, as it is listed in the Swiss business register (UID). Your legal name, your address and your legal form come from there: you have nothing to type in, and your clients see up-to-date data. Only registered companies can use TAYO.pro.
What you do
Section titled “What you do”- Look up your company or sole proprietorship by name or by CHE number.
- In the results, each company shows its municipality, its UID and its legal form. Click Select next to yours.
- Confirm that the company is yours. It is registered, and the wizard moves on to the next step by itself.
Above the search, the “Several branches? Decide before you choose” card reminds you to choose between a single account and one account per branch before you select. This step is the same on Basic and on Plus.
Frequently asked questions
Section titled “Frequently asked questions”I can’t find my company
Section titled “I can’t find my company”The app gives you three common reasons:
- your company was registered recently: the register can take a few days to publish it;
- its legal name differs from the one you use: try the CHE number;
- your company is not in the UID register yet.
The Search on uid.admin.ch button opens the official register, where you can find your CHE number and your legal name. If your company is listed there and TAYO.pro still cannot find it, write to us: the Help button, then Contact.
“This company is already registered on TAYO.pro”
Section titled ““This company is already registered on TAYO.pro””The UID you chose already belongs to another TAYO.pro account: a company identity can be registered on one account only. If your company has several branches, select the one matching your own UID, with Select another company. If you believe this is a mistake, write to us (Help, then Contact): we will sort it out with you.
My company has several branches
Section titled “My company has several branches”A search by name returns the head office and the branches listed in the commercial register, under the same name; the legal form, shown under each result, tells which is which. Decide before you select: one account for the whole company, with the multi-branch module, or one account per branch, with its own notifications and certificates. It is all explained in Several branches: one account or several?.
I am self-employed, as a sole proprietorship
Section titled “I am self-employed, as a sole proprietorship”Look it up like a company, by name or by CHE number: the search covers sole proprietorships too. It must be listed in the UID register.
Can I change the UID later?
Section titled “Can I change the UID later?”Not from the wizard any more: once the company is registered, the step shows it and only lets you continue. After that, an administrator can correct a mistake once under Identity, with My UID is incorrect?. If your company only changed its address, name or legal form, syncing your Identity with the register is enough. Both are described in Your professional Identity.
