💸Swiss taxes

Checklist deductions

• Commute expenses

  • Blanket deduction bicycle 700 CHF

  • Public Transport to work: deduct monthly subscription instead of yearly

    • It may also be possible to deduct a 1st class ticket (see KGeld), although this hinges on the claim that you are working during the commute. I'm unsure if this would be accepted for short distances.

• Meal expenses

  • blanket deduction 3200 CHF / year

• General work expenses

  • blanked deduction of 3%

• Professional development

  • blanket deduction of 500 CHF

• Asset management fee: (3A, stock brokerage)
