Tax returns and procedures

We provide advice in all tax matters to corporate identities in Switzerland, as well as to foreign entities intending to locate to Switzerland and set up their head office in any of the Swiss cantons or intending to incorporate a subsidiary or establish a branch in Switzerland.

We assist our clients with the different levels of ordinary taxation in Switzerland (municipal, cantonal and federal taxes), as well as with all tax returns and administrative procedures concerning special taxes (VAT, withholding tax, customs duties, e.g.). In addition to Swiss legislation and Swiss tax compliance, we also advise on applicable double taxation agreements.

Similar advice is offered to private persons resident in Switzerland or to those intending to move their residency to Switzerland. We specialize in advising private clients in complicated tax affairs and in trust and inheritance planning matters.

We assist all our clients in administrative tax disputes before all tax authorities at the various levels of jurisdiction and in all cantons, as well as with customs proceedings and voluntary disclosure proceedings.

Where necessary, and in relation to cases with foreign aspects, we can coordinate and consult with leading advisors in all major jurisdictions.

Adivce is provided in all official Swiss languages (German, Italian and French) as well as in English.
