Tax representation
VAT liability for foreign companies
Companies offering services in Switzerland are subject to local VAT if their worldwide turnover exceeds CHF 100,000.00 in the course of a year. Even if turnover in Switzerland falls below this threshold, it is the worldwide turnover that determines whether a company is subject to VAT. In the case of deliveries, assembly and installation are considered domestic services, since under Swiss law the place of delivery is wherever the item is assembled or installed.
These companies need a tax representative in Switzerland. We can act as your representative in Switzerland, handle your registration in the Swiss VAT register, process your returns, and serve as your postal address for the Swiss Tax Office.
Withholding tax
We increasingly receive enquiries from companies or boards of directors due to withholding tax claims by the Swiss Federal Tax Authority (FTA). On the one hand, this has to do with there still being insufficient awareness of tax obligations in the area of withholding tax; on the other hand, claims are mostly high due to the 35% withholding tax. The cantonal tax authorities report adjustments for legal entities to the FTA, with the result that there are further claims made to shareholders by the FTA. In addition, there are often also legitimate concerns due to liability of the board of directors or the liquidator due to Art. 15 of the Federal Withholding Tax Law (VStG) with regard to claims made to legal entities by the FTA. As part of a team with a specialist lawyer for formal legal and liability matters relating to company bodies as well as a tax expert, we analyse your situation and support you in your line of reasoning regarding any claims by tax administration, with the aim of safeguarding your interests vis-à-vis the FTA.
