Undeclared assets in Switzerland and abroad can only be disclosed once in a voluntary disclosure. If the evasion is reported by taxpayers themselves, the tax evasion penalty does not apply the first time. The prerequisite in this case is that the tax administration is not familiar with the facts.
We would be happy to arrange an appointment with you to discuss your case with you individually. After that, we will take care of the rest.
The voluntary declaration should be based on the criminal statute of limitations, which (for simple tax offences) covers the last ten years. Be sure to consult us on the subject of the statute of limitations - calculations are often more complicated than they seem at first glance!
An additional payment of the undeclared assets will be due. If the offence is a repeat offence, an additional 20% back tax will be charged.
The tax arrears, i.e. the evaded taxes and interest, are levied for a maximum of ten years. Any other taxes (e.g. value added tax, real estate gains tax and inheritance tax) as well as levies (e.g. AHV contributions) remain due.
