Update - Tax information i.c.w. Corona
The Zug electorate approved the revision of the Zug Tax Act on March 7, 2021. We have briefly summarized the changes for you, which will come into effect retroactively as of Jan 01, 2021.
Stamp duty, foreign insurance premium payments
The payment of insurance premiums by a Swiss policyholder to a foreign insurer may result that the Swiss policyholder has to declare and pay stamp duty to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (SFTA). Foreign permanent establishments of Swiss companies may also qualify as Swiss policyholders. We therefore recommend periodically checking the insurance premiums paid with respect to the liability to pay and declare Swiss stamp duty.
