Frequently asked questions about our accounting services
What does a Swiss accounting firm, or fiduciary, do?
A Swiss fiduciary helps businesses manage accounting, tax and administrative obligations. Services can include bookkeeping, preparing tax returns, VAT management, payroll and certain company administration matters.
For entrepreneurs, the main benefits are saving time, reducing administrative errors and gaining a clearer view of their business finances.
Is appointing an accounting firm compulsory in Switzerland?
No. You do not have to appoint an accounting firm. However, every business must meet the accounting and tax obligations that apply to its legal structure and circumstances.
Professional support can help when administration takes too much time, your business becomes liable for VAT, you employ staff or you want to delegate these tasks to a specialist.
When should I appoint an accounting firm?
It helps to organise your accounting from the start, especially if you are forming an LLC or limited company, plan to issue invoices soon, hire staff or register for VAT.
An accounting firm can also step in later, for example to prepare year-end accounts, bring bookkeeping up to date or organise your financial administration.
Can an accounting firm help after I form my LLC or limited company?
Yes. After formation, you need to set up bookkeeping, retain supporting documents, plan for tax obligations and organise any VAT or payroll requirements.
Entreprendre.ch supports entrepreneurs with company formation and the practical steps that follow the launch.
Which documents should I send to my accountant?
Typical documents include sales invoices, supplier invoices, bank statements, expense receipts, key contracts, tax documents and, where relevant, payroll information.
Sending complete, well-organised documents regularly makes accounting more efficient and reliable.
Can an accounting firm manage VAT?
Yes. An accounting firm can help with VAT registration when required, tracking relevant transactions and preparing VAT returns.
Can I work with my accountant remotely?
Yes. Much of the work can be handled remotely, including sharing documents, discussing administrative matters, maintaining the accounts and preparing the required information.
