Dear Madam or Sir,

 

On 17 June 2016, the Swiss Parliament adopted the Corporate Tax Reform III package to strengthen Switzerland’s attractiveness as a business location. The cantons are now required to adjust their cantonal tax laws in accordance with the new legislation. Several Cantons have already presented their strategy for the implementation of Corporate Tax Reform III into their cantonal tax law.


In addition, on 30 September 2016, the Swiss Parliament agreed on an important amendment to the Swiss Withholding Tax Act in connection with the application of the dividend notification procedure.


In this issue of our quarterly newsletter we will inform you on these milestones and further current tax developments.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren

 

Am 17. Juni 2016 hat das Schweizer Parlament die Unternehmenssteuerreform III verabschiedet. Durch die geplanten Massnahmen soll die Attraktivität der Schweiz als Unternehmensstandort gestärkt werden. Die Kantone müssen nun ihre kantonalen Steuergesetze entsprechend anpassen. Einige Kantone haben bereits ihre Strategie zur Umsetzung der Unternehmenssteuerreform III in ihr kantonales Steuerrecht vorgestellt.

 

Zudem hat das Schweizer Parlament am 30. September 2016 eine wichtige Änderung des Bundesgesetzes über die Verrechnungssteuer in Bezug auf die Anwendung des Meldeverfahrens bei Konzerndividenden genehmigt.

 

Über diese Meilensteine und weitere aktuelle Entwicklungen im Steuerrecht informieren wir Sie in dieser Ausgabe unseres quartalsweise erscheinenden Newsletter.
