Limited statutory audit for associations in Nunningen explained simply
Delegate, digitalise or do it all yourself? Around limited statutory audit in Nunningen, every SME draws its own line. The reference points below — federal law, cantonal practice and lessons from the field — help you place the cursor well.
Year-end closing: how the mechanics work
Companies exceeding two of three thresholds for two consecutive years — CHF 20 million balance sheet total, CHF 40 million revenue, 250 full-time positions — move to an ordinary audit. Below that, the limited audit applies, and companies with no more than ten full-time positions on annual average can opt out with the consent of all shareholders.
A company in Nunningen that presents clean, punctual annual accounts gains credibility — with its bank, its suppliers and the tax administration.
Outsource limited statutory audit or keep it in-house?
Splitting roles clearly avoids duplication: the company captures documents and approves payments; the fiduciary checks postings, closes the year and defends the file before the authorities. Each side does what it does best — and nobody keys the same invoice twice.
Changing fiduciary is not a drama: the accounting data belongs to the company, and a clean export (entries, chart of accounts, linked documents) allows a transition at year-end. A provider who locks in a client's data says a lot about how it works.
The Swiss legal frame for limited statutory audit
Swiss accounting law has been unified in the Code of Obligations since 2013: the same bookkeeping rules (art. 957a CO) and retention rules (art. 958f CO — 10 years for books, vouchers and reports) apply regardless of legal form. Limited statutory audit sits squarely within this frame, including for companies based in Nunningen.
The good news: the Swiss frame is stable and predictable. Structure limited statutory audit once — chart of accounts, document flow, calendar — and the same organisation pays off for years.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
Concretely, limited statutory audit benefits from three tiers: balance-sheet accounts (classes 1-2) kept spotless for the closing, income accounts (classes 3-6) shaped for steering, and closing accounts (class 9) reserved for year-end entries. Each tier has its rhythm and its owner.
For limited statutory audit, a few well-chosen analytical accounts (by activity, by site) beat a forest of sub-accounts nobody ever reads.

Frequently asked questions
Can limited statutory audit be automated with AI?
Largely, yes: automatic document reading, posting suggestions, bank reconciliation via QR references and VAT exports. Human approval remains essential — AI prepares, the professional checks. That is exactly how MyFiducia.ai approaches limited statutory audit.
Do you need a fiduciary for limited statutory audit, or can you do it yourself?
Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself. As soon as payroll, VAT and a closing with tax stakes are involved, professional support prevents mistakes that cost more than the fees. With a shared platform, the fiduciary does not even need to be in Nunningen.
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Nunningen?
Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Nunningen manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
When is entry in the commercial register mandatory?
A Sàrl and an SA only come into existence with their registration. A sole proprietorship must register from CHF 100,000 of annual revenue; below that, registration stays voluntary but adds credibility and protects the business name. Registration goes through the canton's commercial register office — for Nunningen too.
