In which city is Spotify Technology S.A.'s registered headquarters?

The story behind the answer

Spotify Technology S.A.’s registered headquarters is in Luxembourg. The company is incorporated under Luxembourg law, and its registered office is in Luxembourg City, even though Spotify was founded in Stockholm and maintains major operations in Sweden and elsewhere.

This distinction explains why several cities can appear in descriptions of Spotify. Stockholm is the company’s historical birthplace and an important operational center. Luxembourg is the legal home of Spotify Technology S.A., the public parent company. A registered office is the official corporate address recorded for legal and administrative purposes; it is not necessarily the same as the place where most employees work.

Spotify’s international structure also explains why its American depositary receipts trade in the United States while the issuer remains a Luxembourg société anonyme. The company began in 2006 and launched in 2008, but its corporate registration and listing arrangements developed as it expanded globally.
