Frequently asked questions – tax & accounting in Geneva and Romandy

Why adapt bookkeeping to Geneva and Romandy specifics?+
Cantonal specifics (tax rates, filing obligations, deadlines) influence chart structure, tax planning and compliance scheduling. Aligning with Geneva and Romandy reduces risk and improves lawful optimisation.
What differs between federal and cantonal obligations?+
Federal law sets core principles (Code of Obligations, VAT, social security) while cantons define scales, processes and certain deductions. Multi‑level monitoring is required to stay compliant and anticipate changes.
When should payroll be outsourced in Geneva?+
When internal processing time becomes disproportionate, complexity increases (multi‑activity, cross‑border staff) or recurring compliance errors appear. Outsourcing improves reliability, security and traceability.
