I, Hans Rigendinger, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this report on Form 10-Q of SunVesta, Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or

omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances

under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this

flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4. The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining

disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and

internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)

for the registrant and  have:

a)

Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls

and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to

the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those

entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;

b)

Designed  such  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  or  caused  such  internal  control

over  financial  reporting  to  be  designed  under  our  supervision,  to  provide  reasonable  assurance

regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external

purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

c)

Evaluated  the  effectiveness  of  the  registrant’s  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  and

Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial

reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth

fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to

materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and

5. I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to

the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons

performing the equivalent functions):

a)

All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of

internal controls over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the

registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

b)

Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who

have a significant role in the registrant's internal controls over financial reporting.
