VAT for online trade with Switzerland

Cross-border online trading is coming under scrutiny by the Swiss tax and customs authorities. In mid-August, the Federal Council decided that foreign online traders should not benefit from VAT tax advantages. According to the Federal Tax Administration, foreign online traders and mail order companies will also have to pay VAT on small consignments from January 1, 2019.

Removal of obstacles to digitisation

On 29 August 2018, the Federal Council took note of the results of the "Digital Test" survey conducted by the Federal Department of Economic Affairs, Education and Research (EAER). On the basis of the feedback received, it has decided to examine in more detail measures to reduce the obstacles to the statutory formal requirements.
