Samsung Electronics is headquartered in Suwon, South Korea, and it runs its business worldwide through 309 consolidated subsidiaries, 273 of them outside Korea, at the end of June 2026. The company was incorporated in 1969 and listed its shares on the Korea Stock Exchange in 1975. Its Korean head office functions are split by division and business across Suwon, Gumi, Gwangju, Giheung, Hwaseong and Pyeongtaek.
Samsung’s quarterly business reports name its regional headquarters, its main factories and its overseas research centres, but they do not combine them into one directory. We built that directory from the reports, from company registers in the UK and India, and from dated reports on Samsung’s US moves. We then counted the subsidiaries by region at two points in time to show where the company grew.

Samsung Electronics is one company within the wider Samsung name, and this guide covers its own offices and plants. Its two main divisions are Device eXperience (DX), which makes phones, TVs and home appliances, and Device Solutions (DS), which makes memory and other chips. The DS division brought in KRW 127.5 trillion of the KRW 171.5 trillion in second-quarter 2026 revenue, about 74%, by our calculation.
Samsung Regional Headquarters Around the World
Each division runs its own set of regional headquarters. The DX division has nine and the DS division has five. Singapore is the only city that hosts a regional headquarters for both divisions.
| Region | DX division regional HQ | DS division regional HQ |
|---|---|---|
| North America | New Jersey, US | San Jose, US (Americas) |
| Europe | Surrey, UK | Eschborn, Germany |
| China | Beijing | Shanghai |
| Southeast Asia | Singapore | Singapore |
| Southwest Asia | Haryana, India | Not listed |
| CIS | Moscow, Russia | Not listed |
| Middle East | Riyadh, Saudi Arabia | Not listed |
| Africa | Johannesburg, South Africa | Not listed |
| Latin America | São Paulo, Brazil | Not listed |
| Japan | Not listed | Tokyo |
Harman, the audio and car electronics company Samsung owns, keeps its North America headquarters in Connecticut. The DS division’s European headquarters is listed in Eschborn, Germany, in the 2026 report, while the first-quarter 2025 report listed it in Munich.
The New Jersey entry for North America is about to change. Samsung Electronics America is moving its US headquarters to Texas, which we cover below.
Samsung Subsidiaries by Region: Our Count for 2025 and 2026
We compared the subsidiary counts in two of Samsung’s reports. At the end of March 2025, Samsung Electronics listed 230 subsidiaries. At the end of June 2026, the count was 309, a rise of 79 in 15 months.
| Region | March 31, 2025 | June 30, 2026 | Change | Share of 2026 total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Korea | 32 | 36 | +4 | 11.7% |
| Americas | 48 | 66 | +18 | 21.4% |
| Europe/CIS | 68 | 111 | +43 | 35.9% |
| Middle East/Africa | 21 | 21 | 0 | 6.8% |
| Asia (excluding China) | 32 | 38 | +6 | 12.3% |
| China | 29 | 37 | +8 | 12.0% |
| Total | 230 | 309 | +79 | 100% |

Europe and the CIS account for 43 of the 79 new subsidiaries, more than half of the increase. Europe now holds 36% of all Samsung Electronics subsidiaries, more than the Americas and Korea combined. The Middle East and Africa count did not change.
A subsidiary is a legal entity, not a building. One country can hold several Samsung companies for sales, manufacturing, research or services, and one company can run many offices. The count shows where Samsung has set up legal structures, which is where contracts, tax filings and local hiring happen.
Samsung’s Main Overseas Subsidiaries and What They Do
Samsung names ten overseas subsidiaries as its major ones, and the list covers sales companies, phone factories and chip plants on four continents.
| Abbreviation | Subsidiary | Country | Main business |

| SII | Samsung International, Inc. | United States | Manufacture of electronic devices |
| SAS | Samsung Austin Semiconductor LLC | United States | Manufacture of semiconductors |

Seven of the ten list manufacturing as a main business, by our count. Vietnam is the only country with two subsidiaries on the list, both making phones and communication equipment.

Samsung in the US: From New Jersey to Plano, Texas
Samsung Electronics America has moved its US head office twice in two years. For about 15 years it was based at 85 Challenger Road in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey, a site of about 235,000 square feet it had occupied since 2010. In August 2024 it announced a move to 700 Sylvan Avenue in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, a building Unilever was leaving. Staff started working there in July 2025, and Samsung held a grand opening on September 22, 2025.
On June 1, 2026, the plan changed. Samsung Electronics America said it would move its US headquarters to its existing campus in Plano, Texas, by the end of 2026, “building on our 30-year presence in the state.” The Plano site is at Legacy Central, where Samsung already leases space in buildings at 6625 and 6555 Declaration Boulevard. New Jersey layoff notices filed in July 2026 cover 739 Samsung Electronics America employees in Englewood Cliffs, effective September 30, 2026, and 179 Samsung SDS America employees in Ridgefield Park, effective October 1, 2026, a total of 918.
| Date | Samsung Electronics America headquarters event |
|---|---|
| 2010 | Moves into 85 Challenger Road, Ridgefield Park, NJ (about 235,000 sq ft) |
| August 2024 | Announces move to 700 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ |
| July 2025 | Employees begin working in Englewood Cliffs |
| September 22, 2025 | Grand opening of the Englewood Cliffs headquarters |
| June 1, 2026 | Move of the US headquarters to Plano, Texas, announced |
| September 30, 2026 | Effective date of 739 New Jersey layoffs at Samsung Electronics America |
| End of 2026 | Planned completion of the move to Plano |
The Englewood Cliffs office will have served as the US headquarters for about a year and a half. Anyone sending formal post to Samsung Electronics America should confirm the current address before mailing, since the Plano move runs to the end of 2026.
Samsung’s Chip Plants in Austin and Taylor, Texas
Texas is also where Samsung makes chips in the US. Samsung Austin Semiconductor is one of the company’s major overseas subsidiaries, and Samsung is building a $37 billion chip plant in Taylor, northeast of Austin, on a campus of 1,268 acres.
In February 2026, Taylor issued temporary certificates of occupancy for about 88,000 square feet of the plant’s first fab. Under its local agreement, Samsung must complete 6 million square feet of floor space by the end of 2026 and another 1 million square feet by 2028. The plant is expected to make Tesla’s AI5 chips under a contract that runs through 2033 and also covers AI6. Once the Plano move is complete, Texas will hold both Samsung’s US head office and its US chip production.
India’s own chip push is covered in our guide to semiconductor plants in India.

Contacting the Right Samsung Office
Samsung offices do not handle walk-in product repairs, and each country has its own support channels. These steps send your request to the right place.
- Product support and repairs go through the Samsung website or app for your country, which lists local service centres.
- Contracts and legal notices go to the registered office of the Samsung company named in your contract, such as Samsung Electronics (UK) Limited in Chertsey or Samsung India Electronics Private Limited in New Delhi.
- US corporate matters should be checked against the Plano move before you post anything to New Jersey.
- Calls with Suwon, Gurugram or Plano need the right time zone. Our time zone converter shows all three side by side.
Be careful with callers or emails that claim to be Samsung support and ask for payment or remote access. Our list of phishing email examples shows the usual tricks. For similar directories of other tech companies, see our guides to IBM offices worldwide and Apple offices in the USA.
