General tax advice
Switzerland knows a number of taxes and charges levied on companies and individuals, including- Income tax and wealth tax
- Tax at source
- Withholding tax and issuance stamp tax
- Capital gains tax on real estate sales
In particular, companies may achieve income tax and wealth tax savings by making the right use of the relevant accounting and valuation principles. The realisation of such savings does, however, require a sophisticated long-term overall approach.
As a result of the corporate taxation reform of 24 February 2008, double taxation has been mitigated in Switzerland. However, by optimising a company’s payout strategy (salary vs. dividend payments) tax savings may still be realised.
In addition to these tax savings, further tax savings may be achieved by
- Pension fund contributions (second pillar)
- Expense regulations approved by the competent tax authority
