If you employ staff without a permanent C residence permit or cross-border commuters, you must deduct their taxes directly from their salary and settle them with the responsible canton. The rates depend on marital status, children, religious denomination and canton, and change regularly.
Finaro handles the complete withholding tax administration: from registration through monthly settlement to rate corrections. As the employer you are liable for correct payment — we make sure everything is right.
We check which of your employees are subject to withholding tax and whether the current rates are correct.
We register your business with the responsible cantons and store the correct rates in the payroll accounting.
We settle on time and correctly deduct the collection commission you are entitled to as the employer.
We prepare the annual certificates and support employees, where needed, with the subsequent ordinary assessment.
In principle, foreign employees resident in Switzerland without a permanent C residence permit, as well as people without tax residence in Switzerland, such as cross-border commuters. We clarify the details for each individual.
From a certain gross annual salary, or on request, the tax is subsequently calculated as with an ordinary tax return. This can be worthwhile, for example with high deductions. We are happy to advise your employees on this.
The earlier this is corrected, the better. We reconcile the settlements with the tax office and set things up correctly going forward.
Hand the settlement over to Finaro.
