Tax

Tax law is highly complex and offers many opportunities to create value – as well as the potential to create legal conflicts. We are a strong partner and handle national and international tax matters, VAT advice, inheritance and estate planning, and provide advice on special taxes. Please do take a look at our tax-related services:

Private individuals

Single or married, renting or a property owner, employed or self-employed – these are the factors that determine how much tax you pay. But there are many other big issues and nitty-gritty details that influence your tax circumstances. We advise you on how to save money and optimise your assets when it comes to tax.

A duty that does not need to be a chore – tax returns. From home office and commuting costs to other tax-deductible expenses through to social security deductions including health insurance costs and donations, we can help reduce your tax burden and submit your tax return on time and with confidence.

Whether it is work-related earnings, earnings from assets, or retirement earnings – any kind of income is taxed. Tax is also payable on assets such as plots of land, buildings, shares, and other assets. We ensure that you retain as much of your property as possible after tax.
We’ve got it nailed. Selling your property can quickly become a financial trap, as any profit you make is subject to tax. The rate depends on where the property is located – but also how long the property was owned for, and how much was invested in renovations, for example. This is a problem, particularly with short-term holding periods. We will be very happy to provide you with practical help and advice.

It is a well-known saying that nothing in life comes for free – especially where taxes are concerned. The level depends on factors such as residency, citizenship (as necessary), and type of kinship and or partnership; the regulations vary from canton to canton. We provide comprehensive advice on how to structure your assets; we can also advise on foreign tax issues, possible tax exemptions, statutory shares, and how best to plan for your retirement.

Corporates

Count on us! How much tax you pay on earnings varies depending on the canton, the location of the company, and on net profits and business expenditure. We provide you with advice, and calculate your tax burden for different scenarios.
Savings at second glance: While tax on the transfer of securities is due with any foreign insurers, for securities transactions you still need to check whether you have an obligation to pay. We are also happy to advise you on avoiding issurance stamp duty on equity contributions with regard to redevelopments and company incorporations. We offer advice and provide you with accurate and meticulous calculations.
Keeping things in check: Income such as moveable capital income, insurance benefits, and lottery wins is taxed at between 8 and 35 % here in Switzerland. We help you retain as much as possible when it comes to reimbursement claims.
It is that time of year again. But you do not have to struggle through it alone. We weigh up your tax options to maximise the benefit to you, bringing the necessary finesse at all times.
Companies that generate revenue in Switzerland have to pay VAT, but this is not the case for everyone. There are many exceptions and special cases when it comes to VAT. Incorrect information or untapped potential can soon cost you a great deal. In addition, it is important to consult the experts before you are being audited. We prepare your accounts and provide step-by-step support should any audits be necessary.
From founding to partnership to whatever comes next: If your company is undergoing substantial changes, we can assist with all the associated restructuring.
