What VAT rate, registration threshold and filing timing apply in Switzerland now?
I need the current Swiss VAT answer for 2026, not a stale 7.7% article. Please explain the current 8.1% normal rate, the CHF 100,000 registration threshold, and how the reporting deadline works in practice because that's where businesses usually stop treating VAT like a theory problem.

How does corporate income tax actually work in Switzerland if there is no single Swiss company tax rate?
I want the real Swiss answer, not a glossy low-tax headline. Please explain the federal 8.5% profit tax, why cantonal and communal profit taxes still change the picture dramatically, and when the top-up tax rules actually matter instead of being waved around in every startup pitch.
What income tax rate do individuals really pay in Switzerland, and why is there no single Swiss salary-tax percentage?
I need a current Swiss personal-tax answer that doesn't pretend one number covers the country. Please explain the federal progressive tax, why cantonal and communal taxes change the real burden, and how wealth tax and deductions keep turning a 'simple rate' question into a location question.
What tax deadlines matter most in Switzerland for personal returns, VAT and federal tax payments?
I want the practical Swiss compliance answer, not a vague 'check your canton' shrug. Please explain how the cantonal return deadline usually works, what fixed federal date people should know, and when Swiss VAT becomes due because those deadlines drive real cash-flow and penalty risk.
