Tax Representation for foreign companies

Foreign companies wishing to operate in Switzerland—whether eCommerce businesses, artisans, or other entrepreneurial entities—and generating an annual global turnover of at least CHF 100,000 must comply with specific tax obligations. Among these is the requirement to be fiscally represented by a Swiss entity with the Federal Tax Administration (FTA). This step is essential to ensure regulatory compliance and conduct business smoothly in the Swiss market. Trans-Service provides a comprehensive tax representation service designed to simplify these obligations and ensure professional management of fiscal matters. 

With an experienced team and deep knowledge of Swiss regulations, we guarantee precise and timely handling, reducing risks and optimizing processes. A distinctive aspect of Trans-Service’s offering is its ability to combine tax representation with the advantages of being a Swiss customs operator. This integration further simplifies import operations by managing VAT reporting and providing access to the company’s customs account for VAT settlement. This solution is particularly beneficial for Swiss importers who do not have their own customs account.
