Division of Corporation Finance

Re:

Garmin Ltd.
Incoming letter dated September 30, 2014

You have requested advice as to whether Garmin Ltd. may file a definitive proxy statement without filing a preliminary proxy statement for certain matters subject to a shareholder vote at an annual meeting under the laws of Switzerland that are not among the matters specifically enumerated in Exchange Act Rule 14a-6(a).

Based on the facts presented, the Division would not object if Garmin Ltd. were to file a definitive proxy statement without filing a preliminary proxy statement for the proposals, as described in your incoming letter, that are required to be or are ordinarily submitted for shareholder approval at an annual meeting under the laws of Switzerland. Foreign issuers organized under the laws of Switzerland may rely on this letter with respect to the proposals described in your incoming letter.

This position is based on the representations made to the Division in your letter. Any different facts or conditions might require the Division to reach a different conclusion.

Sincerely,

Elliot Staffin
Special Counsel
