Everything that matters about limited statutory audit for SA companies in Vaux-sur-Morges
Limited statutory audit for SA companies in Vaux-sur-Morges rests on three pillars: federal law that applies across Switzerland, cantonal deadlines worth knowing, and tools that eliminate re-keying. This guide puts it all in order, fact by fact.
Year-end closing: how the mechanics work
The order of operations matters: reconciliations first (bank, cash, receivables, payables), then the closing entries, finally the VAT and AHV consistency checks. Reversing the order means starting over.
For limited statutory audit, a closing checklist reused every year transforms the exercise: same steps, same checks, same documents — only the year changes.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
Shareholder current accounts demand strict hygiene: every private withdrawal documented, interest at the rates accepted by the tax administration, and a clean-up at closing.
Suspense accounts (to clarify) are useful provided they are emptied monthly: a swelling “miscellaneous” account is the classic symptom of a chart that no longer fits the activity.
A Swiss SME's accounting calendar
Tax instalments are steered: too low, they set up a salty final bill; too high, they tie up cash. Adjusting them on current figures is a profitable reflex, in Vaux-sur-Morges as anywhere.
For limited statutory audit, two dates lock themselves in every year: the January salary declaration and the general meeting within six months — everything else is planned around them.
The Swiss legal frame for limited statutory audit
For an owner in Vaux-sur-Morges, the question is never “do we need accounts?” but “at what level of detail?”. The CO sets the floor; the bank, the tax office and the shareholders set the rest.
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.
Vaux-sur-Morges: what changes, what does not
Working with a fiduciary from Vaux-sur-Morges no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Vaux-sur-Morges are shared online, while the canton Vaud keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.
Federal deadlines do not move in Vaux-sur-Morges: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 1126 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
What is simplified bookkeeping and who can use it?
Sole proprietorships and partnerships under CHF 500,000 of revenue may limit themselves to recording income, expenses and assets (art. 957 para. 2 CO). Once over the threshold — or upon founding a Sàrl or an SA — full accounts with balance sheet, income statement and notes become mandatory. The CHF 500,000 threshold is assessed the same way in Vaux-sur-Morges.
How much does limited statutory audit cost in Vaux-sur-Morges?
It depends on document volume, the number of salaries and VAT complexity — no serious figure can be quoted without examining the file. Two levers cut the bill everywhere: digitised, well-filed receipts and software that prepares entries instead of having them re-keyed.
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 Vaux-sur-Morges.
